Afrocentric Sermons: The Beauty of Blackness in the Bible Paperback – January 1, 1993

I haven't read this book yet, but it is on 'my next to read list' I believe that the author poured his heart into it and it deserves being read.

This book has strongly touched my heart because there are things featured in this book that surprised me. I strongly recommend this book for African History classes because it will expose the truth about Africans' role in the Bible and world history.Tragically, America, through prejudice and bigotry, is known for keeping people ignorant of their true history and ancestral cultural values. This is the ultimate reason why it is very important for people of African descent to know the most vital information about the richness of their ancestry and cultural values because the truth is that these racist scholars, history publishers, and teachers try to wipe African people out the face of history, in order to make disenfranchised African descendents believe that their ancestors had never ever made any contributions to the world. If oppressed people were to have first-hand knowledge about their history, it would be very dangerous to their oppressors because their true knowledge would be the ULTIMATE INDICTMENT against the oppressor for the atrocities they committed unto the oppressed people they rule.When I first heard about Africans who FIRST invented mathematics, art, literature, science, engineering, democracy, astrology, and many many many other inventions, I was amazed and shocked to know because unfortunately, people of African descent were not made to know about their history because these racists educators had imprisoned their minds with so many LIES, LIES, LIES that disenfranchised African people and descendents interpreted this torturous suffering as self-hatred (internalized racism). They were taught to believe that Eurocentric values(race, physical appearance, attitudes, etc.) were superior to African-centered or other ethnic-centered values, as a result of internalized racism. This book, as well as other books on African History, will enlighten disenfranchised African people and descendents to free their minds from the imprisoning shackles of internalized racism, help them learn to accept themselves and their heritage, and to teach their future generations the value of their African Heritage.I believe that the objective of this book and many others like it, was to FREE ONE'S MIND about accepting people for who they are, NOT WHAT THEY ARE. I strongly recommend that everyone should read this book because it will enable everyone to open their minds to the truth and importance of the Africans' role in Ancient Biblical History. This book is so truthful that it should be taught in Black History classes throughout American, matter of fact, WORLDWIDE! IT IS MOST IMPORTANT FOR EVERYONE TO SEEK THE TRUTH ABOUT THEIR TRUE ANCESTRAL HISTORY AND CULTURE & PASS IT DOWN FROM ONE GENERATION TO THE NEXT GENERATIONS TO COME!FREE YOUR MIND!
