The purpose of this book is to uncover the true history of sub-Saharan Africans, Africans in Diaspora, including African-Americans in context to world history and that of civilization from its inception. This context refutes the white supremacists claim that blacks have no history of achievements or accomplishments to human advancement prior to slavery and related emancipation. It demonstrates that blacks are the first human species, founders of civilization and its advancements. There is one civilization and that is African civilization. Western civilization is a replica of that singular civilization founded in Antiquity. Black African civilization's rebirth in Europe spawned the Renaissance, Age of Reason, Enlightenment, and Modernity. African civilization is the root, origin and master blueprint of all religions. During Antiquity all gods and goddesses were made in the image of sub-Saharan Africans, Africans in Diaspora, including African-Americans. All Saviors of Mankind, including Jesus, Buddha, Moses, Abraham, etc., were made in the image of Africans in Diaspora. The book highlights how Western ethnocentrism, xenophobia, distortions of religion, and racism that intensified during African slavery and colonization remade these images to appear as Aryan or Nordic as possible. All credit for the development of civilization and achievements were seized by these Western conquerors who reigned within the last 400 years. The 10,000 years or more of black African hegemony was purposely purged from recorded history. The purpose of this purge is to brainwash the more than 80 percent of the world's population that is colored to accept substandard wages and conditions to facilitate the accumulation of wealth and privilege by those who claim to be white. The book highlights the evidence that the first people and civilizations of Europe, Asia, Far East, Pacific Islands and Americas were direct descendants of the sub-Saharan Africans, Africans in Diaspora, including African-Americans. These blacks established all leaps forward from primitive society to the early civilizations that would spawn modernity. In addition, the book highlights evidence that the African hegemony maintained cultural and commercial ties globally from Antiquity to prior to Columbus and European invasions. Through Masonic secrecy the African civilization and its Mystery System survived the Inquisition, the rise of European nationalism and xenophobia to find its way to the North American colonies. As such, colonist founded the future superpower, the United States of America (USA), on principles and values accrued from Africa's Mystery System drawn from the Dogon-Egyptian civilization. The strength of this new nation depends on leaders that appear to fulfill the Pharaohic Karma of Antiquity and build a modern African global hegemony learning from the actual achievements and avoid mistakes of the past.

In March 1896 a well-disciplined and massive Ethiopian army did the unthinkable-it routed an invading Italian force and brought Italy's war of conquest in Africa to an end. In an age of relentless European expansion, Ethiopia had successfully defended its independence and cast doubt upon an unshakable certainty of the age-that sooner or later all Africans would fall under the rule of Europeans. This event opened a breach that would lead, in the aftermath of world war fifty years later, to the continent's painful struggle for freedom from colonial rule. Raymond Jonas offers the first comprehensive account of this singular episode in modern world history. The narrative is peopled by the ambitious and vain, the creative and the coarse, across Africa, Europe, and the Americas-personalities like Menelik, a biblically inspired provincial monarch who consolidated Ethiopia's throne; Taytu, his quick-witted and aggressive wife; and the Swiss engineer Alfred Ilg, the emperor's close advisor. The Ethiopians' brilliant gamesmanship and savvy public relations campaign helped roll back the Europeanization of Africa. Figures throughout the African diaspora immediately grasped the significance of Adwa, Menelik, and an independent Ethiopia. Writing deftly from a transnational perspective, Jonas puts Adwa in the context of manifest destiny and Jim Crow, signaling a challenge to the very concept of white dominance. By reopening seemingly settled questions of race and empire, the Battle of Adwa was thus a harbinger of the global, unsettled century about to unfold.

The transatlantic slave trade forced millions of Africans into bondage. Until the early nineteenth century, African slaves came to the Americas in greater numbers than Europeans. In the Shadow of Slavery provides a startling new assessment of the Atlantic slave trade and upends conventional wisdom by shifting attention from the crops slaves were forced to produce to the foods they planted for their own nourishment. Many familiar foods—millet, sorghum, coffee, okra, watermelon, and the "Asian" long bean, for example—are native to Africa, while commercial products such as Coca Cola, Worcestershire Sauce, and Palmolive Soap rely on African plants that were brought to the Americas on slave ships as provisions, medicines, cordage, and bedding. In this exciting, original, and groundbreaking book, Judith A. Carney and Richard Nicholas Rosomoff draw on archaeological records, oral histories, and the accounts of slave ship captains to show how slaves' food plots—"botanical gardens of the dispossessed"—became the incubators of African survival in the Americas and Africanized the foodways of plantation societies.

After successfully writing and publishing 12 children's books, I wanted to give adults a powerful history lesson on when blacks ruled the world. It all started with my coming across some important facts that have been lost in oblivion about the continent and its people. On further exploration, startling information came to light, not only about the African continent but also about how historians and researchers over the ages have manipulated theories to deliberately degrade the otherwise rich and influential heritage of Africa. This book discusses important yet unknown truths about the ancient Black civilizations and how they spread around the world, how the people and the beliefs of the African people have influenced different religions and how the Africans spread out into the world taking their knowledge, culture, art and architecture where ever they went. African history has helped shape and mold other civilizations over time without any due credit being given for it.
