Professor Scobie combines a broad and expert knowledge of his subject with the dramatic skill of the rapporteur. This is a rare gift that brings history alive to students. His portrait of the amazingly gifted, Chevalier St. Georges, whose brilliance as composer, conductor, violinist, swordsman, equestrian, soldier, took him to the palace of kings and the darling of society, makes a mockery of the baseless fabrications Europeans cling to about the inferiority of African peoples. For make no mistake about it, there have been numberous men and women of African ancestry of equal worth as the Chevalier.
A substantial part of this book deals with African resistance, particularly during the centuries of slavery. This is something that has been deliverately played down by historians. History books, as a result, have always placed undue prominence on the works of those abolitionists, predominantly Europeans, who campaigned for abolition and emancipation. That is an unjustified statement at the expense of the continuous resistance by the enslaved Africans themselves. Also, Africans themselves have played significant role in the abolitionist movement. The chapters, African Resistance to Slavery and The Haitian Revolution Re-examined bear eloquent testimony to this issue of resistance.

Dr. Carter Godwin Woodson The renewed interest in Carter C. Woodson?s minor masterpiece, The Mis-Education of the Negro, has led to interest in his other writings of this subject. His book The Education of the Negro should be read in relationship to understanding his more known book on the subject, The MisEducation of the
Negro.

The question about teaching slaves to read and write remained a dilemma throughout the entire slave period. The slave master knew that to teach the slave to read and write he might ultimately emerge as a thinker. These thinkers would inevitably question whether they should be a slave or eventually try to become free. Dr. John Henrik Clarke

Black Classic Press should be commended for
republishing Stanley Land-Poole¿s The Story of the Moors in Spain, which was first published in 1886. The work is a classic in its field, and has been so for over a hundred years. Up to 1886, few histories of
non-Christian civilizations existed in the English language. Considerable literature on the medieval Islamic cultures existed in languages such as French, German, Spanish, and Arabic. But The Story of the Moors in Spain was the first popular and scholarly work in the English language. In addition to The Moors in Spain (1886), Lane-Poole wrote Turkey (1888), The Barbary Cosairs (1890), and The History of the Mogul Emperors of Hin dustan (1892). Of all his historical works, The Moors in Spain is preeminent, and it is a privilege for the present reader to study this great historical classic. The decline and fall of the Moorish Empire was a great
setback to modern civilization. Had this great African culture been able to survive, the world would have been five hundred years more advanced than it is today. The Story of the Moors in Spain is a chronicle of splendor
and tragedy, and no one has told the story better than Stanley Lane-Poole. All serious students of history should read this book. It is of special value to students of African history, who should be glad that this historical classic is now back in print.
Michael Bradley delves back into our glacial past during the last Ice Age in order to find the prehistoric sources of the white race's aggression, racism and sexism. Relying on the researches of Alexander Marshack, Carleton Coon, Konrad Lorenz, S.L. Washburn, Ralph Solecki and others, Bradley offers a persuasive argument that the white race, the Neanderthal-Caucasoids, are more aggressive than others because of ancient sexual maladaptation.
And, in tracing the effects of Caucasian aggression, Bradley offers an uncomfortable and all-too-plausible explanation for the pattern of human history

The African converts to Islam in Africa and those abroad have at last begun to lose some of their romanticism about the Arabs and Islam and are now asking some pertinent questions about this religion and it's original propagators that they should have asked long ago.
Prior to the European Slave Trade racism did not exist, Africans were highly regarded ,respected and revered; however, during the European Slave Trade (15-19th centuries), Africans were belittled, scorned, disgraced, and lied about concerning their legacy they gave to the world, in order to justify enslaving them: especially denied, was their creation of philosophy, science, mathematics, astronomy, architecture, writing, medicine, humanity, civilization, Chirstianity, Judaism, and Islam (Adam, Eve, Jesus, Mary, Abraham, Moses, and Muhammad were black).
In fact, according to the author, Indus Khamit-Kush, there are no albino Gods - all the Gods (Hercules, Apollo, Athene, Venus, Zeus, Buddha, etc.) are black!- and he backs it up with documentation from both albinic and melanic historians.
He proves that Athens, Greece was founded and colonized by an African King named Kecrops.
He also proves that the Greeks are the greatest plagiarizers in the history of mankind.
Virtually, everything they claim they invented, they stole from Kemites (whom they call "Egyptians," both terms mean "black people").
Every nationality needs to read this book, it will change the major misconceptions and the abysmal miseducation we have about ourselves!
The first freedom paths taken by runaway slaves led to Native American villages, where black men and women found a red hand of friendship and an accepting culture. The offspring of Black and Indian marriages shaped the early days of the fur trade, added a new dimension to frontier diplomacy, and made a daring contribution to th efight for American liberty.
