Download or read book 100 Greatest African Americans written by Molefi Kete Asante and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2010-06-28 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1619, when Africans first came ashore in the swampy Chesapeake region of Virginia, there have been many individuals whose achievements or strength of character in the face of monumental hardships have called attention to the genius of the African American people. This book attempts to distill from many wonderful possibilities the 100 most outstanding examples of greatness. Pioneering scholar of African American Studies Molefi Kete Asante has used four criteria in his selection: the individual''s significance in the general progress of African Americans toward full equality in the American social and political system; self-sacrifice and the demonstration of risk for the collective good; unusual will and determination in the face of the greatest danger or against the most stubborn odds; and personal achievement that reveals the best qualities of the African American people. In adopting these criteria Professor Asante has sought to steer away from the usual standards of popular culture, which often elevates the most popular, the wealthiest, or the most photogenic to the cult of celebrity. The individuals in this book - examples of lasting greatness as opposed to the ephemeral glare of celebrity fame - come from four centuries of African American history. Each entry includes brief biographical information, relevant dates, an assessment of the individual''s place in African American history with particular reference to a historical timeline, and a discussion of his or her unique impact on American society. Numerous pictures and illustrations will accompany the articles. This superb reference work will complement any library and be of special interest to students and scholars of American and African American history.
Download or read book Twelve Americans written by Howard Carroll and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twelve Americans: Their Lives and Times A Disposition to belittle and disparage public men is very properly held to be a characteristic failing of the Republic. Yet we are told that it is not more prevalent in our American Union than it was in the commonwealths of ancient Greece, and that it is not more distinctly marked in the United States of to-day than it was during the lifetime of the fathers of the country. Whether it be more justifiable is a question less open to discussion than whether there is great danger of its being too freely indulged There is certainly no necessary connection between the service of the people and the imputation of base motives to those who, by election or appointment, assume public responsibilities. It is equally certain that there is nothing more misleading than to deal with a human being, in any of the relations of life, as a mere bundle of qualities attributed to him by common rumor, and associated with none of the shades of character, impulse, and motive which really combine to make him what he is.
