Book In the Shadow of Slavery

    Book Details:
  • Author : Judith Carney
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2011-02-01
  • ISBN : 0520949536
  • Pages : 296 pages

Download or read book In the Shadow of Slavery written by Judith Carney and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Book History of the Negro Race in America from 1619 to 1880  Vol  1 2

Download or read book History of the Negro Race in America from 1619 to 1880 Vol 1 2 written by George Washington Williams and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-20 with total page 911 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'History of the Negro Race in America from 1619 to 1880' volumes 1 and 2, George Washington Williams meticulously traces the history of African Americans in the United States, providing a comprehensive account of their experiences from the beginning of slavery to the Reconstruction era. Williams' writing style is earnest and informative, blending historical facts with personal reflections and highlighting the resilience of the African American community in the face of adversity. This book serves as an invaluable resource for understanding the complexities of race relations in America during a critical period of transformation. Williams' meticulous research and dedication to uncovering the truth behind the African American experience make this work a standout in the field of African American history. George Washington Williams, a pioneering African American historian and social activist, was driven by a desire to give a voice to the marginalized and advocate for justice and equality. His firsthand experiences with discrimination and oppression fueled his passion for documenting the history of African Americans and shedding light on their contributions to society. I highly recommend 'History of the Negro Race in America' to readers interested in delving into the rich and tumultuous history of African Americans in the United States, as well as those seeking a deeper understanding of the enduring impact of slavery and racism on American society.

  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2013-11-12
  • ISBN : 1317791843
  • Pages : 445 pages

Download or read book History in Black written by Yaacov Shavit and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-12 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of Afrocentric historical writing is explored in this study which traces this recording of history from the Hellenistic-Roman period to the 19th century. Afrocentric writers are depicted as searching for the unique primary source of "culture" from one period to the next. Such passing on of cultural traits from the "ancient model" from the classical period to the origin of culture in Egypt and Africa is shown as being a product purely of creative history.

Download or read book The Bible is Black History written by Theron D Williams and published by Bible Is Black History Institute, LLC. This book was released on 2022-08-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in an age when younger African-American Christians are asking tough questions that previous generations would dare not ask. This generation doesn't hesitate to question the validity of the Scriptures, the efficacy of the church, and even the historicity of Jesus. Young people are becoming increasingly curious about what role, if any, did people of African descent play in biblical history? Or, if the Bible is devoid of Black presence, and is merely a book by Europeans, about Europeans and for Europeans to the exclusion of other races and ethnicities? Dr. Theron D. Williams makes a significant contribution to this conversation by answering the difficult questions this generation fearlessly poses. Dr. Williams uses facts from the Bible, well-respected historians, scientists, and DNA evidence to prove that Black people comprised the biblical Israelite community. He also shares historical images from the ancient catacombs that vividly depict the true likeness of the biblical Israelites. This book does not change the biblical text, but it will change how you understand it.This Second Edition provides updated information and further elucidation of key concepts. Also, at the encouragement of readership, this edition expands some of the ideas and addresses concerns my readership felt pertinent to this topic.
