Dr. Edward Robinson was born in 1918 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and
attended school through college in that city. He received his Bachelor of
Science Degree from Virginia State College (now University) for Negroes, in
Petersburg, Virginia. From the Law School of Temple University he obtained
his Juris Doctorate Degree. The importance of mentioning the above is this:
Never during all the years of those schools, he was never told (taught,
presented with) any of the huge body of information concerning the beauty,
grandeur and sophistication of Kemet (ancient Egypt) and/or the Songhai
Empire. Thus having been deprived of his birthright of obtaining knowledge of
his ancestors in their ancestral home, he was miseducated. He was fortunately
rescued from oblivion by the intervention of his African ancestors.
He was honorably discharged from the U. S. Army after having volunteered and
served in the Second World War.
With a group of dedicated African Americans he helped to build a life
insurance company from $200 in assets to a multi-million dollars institution
of which he became president. After retirement from this thirty-five year
career, he was appointed Executive Deputy Secretary of State of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Retiring from the service with the state, he
served as Executive Director of the Minority Business Council of the City of
Philadelphia. During these careers he served as member of the Board of
Directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia. As the first African
in America so appointed, he bitterly assailed the senate and the board for
having passed over dozens of more highly qualified African Americans for so
many decades.
During all of those years he wrote prolifically and lectured extensively on
the criminally neglected history of Africans in America and in the homeland.
Many of his writings are contained in his web site www.prideandjourney.com He
is a founding member of MATAH which he knows will solve THE PROBLEM facing
Africans.
