Description

First published in 1915, this landmark work traces Africa’s history and the far-reaching influence of its peoples across the world. Moving from ancient civilizations and early European interpretations of the continent to the African diaspora in the Americas and the Caribbean, it challenges stereotypes and brings overlooked histories into view. With incisive analysis, it examines slavery, capitalism, colonial power, racism, and the enduring effects of white supremacy on modern society. Both a historical survey and a powerful affirmation of Africa’s cultural and political significance, the book remains an important study of identity, heritage, and global history.
