From the Browder File: 22 Essays on the African American Experience (From the Browder File Series)

Rating:
Summary: Informative book!
Review: Browder's book is very informative. It is a very detailed guide of the origins of civilization as we know it. The only problem I have with Browder's book is that it makes several assumptions about Christianity and the direct influence that Egyptian culture had on its origin. Because of the slavery of the Hebrews in Eygpt there was a great amount of influence, but not to the degree that he portrays in his book. Nevertheless, I have studied religion and its roots for almost a decade and I have never found a book that goes farther in-depth about the contributions of African people to this country and nations abroad. It is a part of my private collection, right next to my copy of "Stolen Legacy" by George James.

Summary: I once was blind
Review: I think that says it all. If you are a chicken at heart, this book is not for you. This books tells it like it is, and that is good. We need to know that African Americans are the kings and queens of this world. That how the white man protrays us, is his distorted view. When you want to be like someone you will many times, mock what that person is or has. Mockery is the greatest form of flattery---I read that somewhere---and it is true. Whites want to be like us so badly, they could taste it. This book tells us, what we need to do to get back in line with how the Great Spirit inteneded for us to be. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Summary: READ IMMEDIATELY!
Review: This book was the first of Mr. Browder's that I have read and was the foundation for continuing of my education of SELF! I also have the second one in this series which really breaks down religion, civilization, and TRUE history! I don't know about anyone else, but the most I learned in school of my people is that we were naked savages until the good white man came and saved us, which is sooo far from the truth. I don't care if you think you know religion or if you think you know african history, you don't know it to this degree if you haven't read this book and also purchase his next one (Nile Valley Contributions to Civilization). If you can put this down, without a fight, then hats off to you! I read it in one day, that's how thirsty I was/am!
