The answer is Afrocentrism.

Explanation:

Also known as Afrocentricity, this approach focuses on the history of people from recent African descent. It is done in order to contrast a biased or racist attitude towards African-American people.

Afrocentrism is carried out from the perspective of African-American groups, and provides an accurate representation of black people's contribution to society.
