good evening my name is Donna Pilate and I am president of the Student Government Association I like to welcome everyone for coming out tonight and in spending some time with dr. Joseph in your Caanan I asked him this afternoon well what would you like me to say about you when I give my introduction and he replied oh you don't have to say anything so I like to say one thing I like to say is that this summer a friend of mine had a tape of dr. Joseph Benny O'Connor and he played it for me and
it literally brought tears to my eyes because so much truth was in that one tape and at that point I decided that the first lecturer this year would be him I also like to say that you're in store for very uplifting lecture we chose the title wake up black people because that's what we need to do we need to wake up so I like everyone to come together with a round of applause for and let's welcome dr. Joseph Ben your kind I would like to first express my appreciation for your invitation it took me 50
years to get to Tuskegee fifty years ago at age 16 I applied for entrance to tusky my application was accepted but the immigration laws of the United States of America was such and I don't think they have changed much that I couldn't get here I remembered that such had happened to a man before me by the name of Marcus Mosiah Garvey he was invited by Booker T Washington I don't know if you know about him I heard you don't have a Booker T Washington Day unusual but anyhow probably better thoughts may come about there will
be a Booker T Washington day at Tuskegee but anyhow Marcus bhoga tyaga V was invited by Booker T Washington to come to the United States the facts are that read tapes in their Immigration Department Garvey arrived six months subsequent to the death of the great Booker T Washington so taken fifty years to get here nevertheless I got here I do not know if I would have taken the course of action in my life that I have now taken however I would lucky enough to slip through an engineering course and graduate and a few more courses
and Here I am within the context of my education if you could call it that I would prefer to call it the course of my in doctrine ation my training which started in its your PhD Africa and continued in Brazil Cuba Puerto Rico the United States version and in England and Spain been around a few places and in all of these places that I've been I never once receive an education in the history of African people yet I thought that I've educated myself down through those period of time and it is because of that self
education in those things which meant most to me as an African person that I decided at no time would I stand still in these halls of indoctrination and not rebel with the necessary documentation of the lies that are being taught in these halls and so I made the same things that may hurt many of you if not most of you because some of the lies have become your dear frame of reference we could start with the Greeks I hope you have eternities and Sariah T's don't get too bothered about it since the Greeks want too
much anyhow but we can start with that because there is where our institutions of learning has decided to start civilization yet the Greeks are only here from at least 1,000 before the Common Era or before the Christian era as you would prefer to say let us just for example cite one and that particular person would be Hippocrates and I'm sure that you heard of Hippocrates and when you consider that hypocrite this wasn't born until 333 BC or before the Common Era yet in your education you were told that Hippocrates is the father of medicine that's
a lie there's no way that I can say about it other than it's a lie a lie is a lie but it's in the university in the church how could he properties be the father of medicine when the first time you see him he is in Egypt learning medicine from Africans they are numerous happy ride medical happy ride unleaded the nearest tow Hippocrates is at least 1300 years before he was born for example we have what is known as the as the hit us populous the EVAs fabulous and now they so far Rockefeller Baptist the
Edwin Smith papyrus all of these puppy rye go back to as early as 3100 BC the man who Hippocrates took an oath that he would practice medicine according to this planned African whom the Greeks call at school a pious in the Hippocratic oath a man by the name of M hotep died he practiced medicine and died 2,500 years before the birth of Hippocrates and you are telling me that the medical school and the pre-medical historians don't know this they don't know it because it unfortunately Imhotep had a high-visibility like myself otherwise called black they don't
know that they ever spotless by hatshepsut dealing with Planned Parenthood I said Planned Parenthood fifteen hundred and fifty years before the birth of Jesus the Christ is out there when every Medical Journal in 1961 published copies of the Evers after us and we could go on with the happy ride with respect to all kinds of diseases that the Africans had produced both in Egypt and Ethiopia and Sudan and a place then called panic now called Somalia
