Zamani Press

Zamani Press (ZP) was created in 1994 as an independent publishing company to publish, market and distribute literature that is intellectually provocative and academically rigorous.

With the control of the dissemination of information by a few corporate enterprises, ZP serves as an alternative source of information that is not funded by corporate money.

Therefore, the views and ideas expressed are by and for the masses of the people who do not control the majority of the world’s wealth.
THE FOCUS of the information distributed by ZP is about people of African descent and how to elevate them beyond the status of an educationally oppressed people. The reality is that misinformation and poor education has kept people oppressed and unaware of alternative perspectives.

THE AIM of ZP is to support the development of knowledge that has not been supported by the mainstream media, and to serve as an alternative to the major publishing companies.

THE SCOPE of projects supported by ZP covers a wide array of areas that may have been neglected or not supported by major publishing companies. History, psychology, sociology, and science are specific examples of areas that ZP will address.

Western education has conceptually incarcerated the majority of the human population, and ZP publishes, markets and distributes information that is a “counterspin” to the manufactured news we receive daily from the monopoly of large media conglomerates.
In sum, ZP serves as a media source to reclaim the heritage of African people throughout the diaspora. The original location for ZP was Atlanta, GA, but ZP has since relocated to Redan, Georgia.
