Ken L. Harris
Ph.D.
"
A respected advocate, strategist, and thought leader, Dr. Harris advances a philosophy of economic liberation rooted in ancient African principles. At the center of his vision is the restoration of MA'AT—the timeless values of Truth, Justice, Harmony, Balance, Order, Propriety, and Reciprocity—as the guiding framework for global economic development. His rare blend of scholarship, executive leadership, and cultural grounding uniquely positions him as a singular figure in the movement for Black business empowerment, sovereignty, and liberation worldwide.
