The Destruction of Black Civilization: Great Issues of a Race From 4500 B.C. To 2000 A.D.
By: Chancellor Williams
Description:
This classic bestseller documents the development, highlights, contributions, and eventual downfall of black African civilizations. From Ethiopia (Egypt), to Ghana, to Kuba, historian Chancellor Williams chronicles the lives and times of proud, industrious peoples and the societies they built and in which they thrived.
More than just a retelling of popular black African history from the point of view of the black populations so often marginalized and rarely acknowledged, Destruction of Black Civilization is characterized by marked detail to the often ignored black African revered figures of antiquity, prosperous kingdoms, and economic, social and political structures that predetermined the development of Western economic, social and political structure. In these pages one will find unmatched and carefully crafted and documented scholarly historical discourse on the growth of black African states such as Ethiopia, great and powerful empires like Mali and Songhay, and venerable rulers, such as Queen Nzinga. Equal detail and attention are given to the discussion of the elements which led to the downfall of these black civilizations, and the literal erasing of the black African--in antiquity and the present--from the critical worldview stage.
This honest, sober text seeks neither to blame nor absolve any particular set of people; nor does it attempt to oversimplify the complex social, political, and economic factors that led to the eventual destruction of black African civilization. The book does not serve as simply a catalogue of obscure human accomplishment and glorified crime, as Williams offers critical commentary on and possible solutions for redressing the peril in which the black African world has found itself for decades. This is a necessary work for any beginning or serious scholar or student of black and African history.
