A maverick in the truest sense, Obiora Anekwe has been described as one of the most prolific and diverse intellectual scholars of his generation. Born in Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, reared during his early years and youth in Lagos, Nigeria and Columbus, Georgia, respectfully, Obiora embraces his full sense of self to interpret stories through art and writing. In his latest work, Collectively Speaking: Essays on Issues in Ethics, Obiora documents a decade’s worth of essays he wrote on issues related to education, bioethics, society, and the arts. His ability to allow language to tell the truth will attract readers to this book.
