Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is Hogarth Blake?

A: Hogarth Blake is a UK based social studies vehicle aimed at bringing enlightenment of the wide range of issues that face today’s world citizens, no matter their age, race, sex or background.

It is the combination of the tireless work of 4 of the world's best social commentators and educational consultants: Paul Obinna, Twilight Bey, Taharka Ekundayo & Sandra Hurst.

Its main tools are education (in all fields), arts and modern business practices.

Q2: What do you do?

A: Our main work comes from delivering original,  entertaining & highly informative lectures & seminars that will highlight important social topics that most schools won't teach and most people do not have access to.

We also produce some of the world's rarest & most valuable cultural resources such as Paul Obinna's "TIMELINE™ - 8000 Years Of African & European History On One Scroll" and Twilight Bey's "G-Vision".

Q3: Why do you do what you do?

A: To leave a more educated, enlightened & happier planet than than which we found.

Q4: I saw the TIMELINE™

page - isn't this site just for black people?

A: No - we always promote equal opportunities and embrace diversity.

While some of our content is clearly created from a black perspective, all of our work is intended to be universal in its accessiblity.

The topics we address have wide interaction issues at both local & global levels. TIMELINE™ is a perfect example of this - black people are by no means the only ones affected by a weak grasp of African History.

Think - if you practice Indian Yoga, read your Chinese horoscope or eat spaghetti bolognese, do you neglect your own heritage or do yourself a dis-service?

From time to time, Hogarth Blake sees fit to introduce specially vetted associates, guest speakers and editors. We take great pains to ensure that these people will also be of an exceptional pedigree.

Q6: Why the strange name?

A: The name comes from 2 of Britain's most famous artists who added strong social commentary to their artistic work.

While William Hogarth was inclined towards political & social satire, William Blake had a more visionary feel to his work.

Both of these men lived their lives with a spirit that we admire: they highlighted many of the contradictions of their time and held the desire to open peoples' minds to a more positive reality.

Q7: What's in it for me?

A: Anything you want to take. If there is one scrap of information that you can absorb that will enhance your life and your environment, all the better.

We have an uncanny ability to be accessible to a wide range of demographics on a wide range of topics.

Over the course of many years of diligent research, our residents have found that none of these topics can be separated from any other exclusively - there is always an overlap and a sub-topic to explore.

We only offer our opinions. You are under no obligation to accept them - we always welcome feedback, debates and suggestions.
