Book excerpt: In a World that every historical memory is based on the interpretation of people who are bent on control, it is our duty to correct the wrongs. Human perception is distorted to a point that, people have lost touch with what is real and truthful. The African story is one aspect of reality that has been rinsed of all information, which has created a confused people. Led by a false interpretation of ancient history, deceived by a system that enslaves to impose its agenda of superiority. The African have been tricked, indoctrinated, and forced to adopt a system that is contrary to history and reality.This book goes through historical events to answer the question of how the African fell from grace and how the people who civilized the world became a slave race, that all humans hate. It takes a walk through the most ancient origins of the Black African, the influence it has had on planet Earth, why it fell and the forces that are keeping the African from knowing itself. "Unchaining the African Mind" is a book that takes the African story and explores the deficiencies that have shackled the Black African psychology to seek independence from the mental slavery that is imposed both from internal and external forces. It explains the source of this fundamental problem and the systems that have produced it. It also outlines the possible remedies that could be adopted to correct the distorted psyche that plagues the African mind.It is a book that challenges the common concepts of reality to heal the future. It has within recommendations that could help unite the human family and bring about a sovereign race unimpeded by false systems of governance and control. This is just information, read but form your own truth, which is developed through research and great discernment. I hope this book helps you to find your own light in the midst of the great darkness that overshadows our world.

Book excerpt: The Thoughts of an Unchained Mind is a documentation of the author's profound incite regarding Philosophy, History, Pan Africanism, Gender Relations, etc. Beginning with the topics of love and societal frailties, Mr. Graham examines and elucidates his own personal illustrations as to why people and society are in disarray. Arguments brought to the readers' attention in the opening two chapters are guaranteed to leave an indelible mark upon their lives. The book also offers several biographical and scientific sketches of the world in the past as well as present and evidence of future failures. In this inaugural publication, Mr. Graham relays to his audience the widely discussed topics in the social arena such as feminism, womanism, racism, classism, etc. He shows how historically people of African descent and other minority groups have been ravaged by social inequalities. Graham also analyzes the contemporary situation and the various groups that have claimed to be the leaders of the global struggle. Most importantly he supports his arguments with citations from various scholars from which he has studied. The conclusion that the reader may get from his book may differ amongst varying groups but one thing is for certain and that is Mr.Graham is only interested in speaking truth to power.
Download or read book Africa Unchained written by G. Ayittey and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-30 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Africa Unchained , George Ayittey takes a controversial look at Africa's future and makes a number of daring suggestions. Looking at how Africa can modernize, build, and improve their indigenous institutions which have been castigated by African leaders as 'backward and primitive', Ayittey argues that Africa should build and expand upon these traditions of free markets and free trade. Asking why the poorest Africans haven't been able to prosper in the Twenty-first-century, Ayittey makes the answer obvious: their economic freedom was snatched from them. War and conflict replaced peace and the infrastructure crumbled. In a book that will be pondered over and argued about as much as his previous volumes, Ayittey looks at the possibilities for indigenous structures to revive a troubled continent.

Download or read book Unchained Voices written by Vincent Carretta and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2013-04-06 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Unchained Voices, Vincent Carretta has assembled the most comprehensive anthology ever published of writings by eighteenth-century people of African descent, enabling many of these authors to be heard for the first time in two centuries. Their writings reflect the surprisingly diverse experiences of blacks on both sides of the Atlantic-America, Britain, the West Indies, and Africa-between 1760 and 1798. Letters, poems, captivity narratives, petitions, criminal autobiographies, economic treatises, travel accounts, and antislavery arguments were produced during a time of various and changing political and religious loyalties. Although the theme of liberation from physical or spiritual captivity runs throughout the collection, freedom also clearly led to hardship and disappointment for a number of these authors. Briton Hammon, James Albert Ukawsaw Gronniosaw, John Marrant, Ignatius Sancho, Ottobah Cugoano, and Olaudah Equiano told their stories as Afro-Britons who recognized the sovereignty of George III; Johnson Green, Belinda, Benjamin Banneker, and Venture Smith spoke and wrote as African Americans n the United States; Phillis Wheatley, initially an Afro-British poet, later chose an African American identity; Francis Williams and George Liele wrote in Jamaica; David George and Boston King, having served with the British forces in the American Revolution and later lived in Canada, composed their narratives as British subjects in the newly established settlement in Sierra Leone, Africa. In his introduction, Carretta reconstructs the historical and cultural context of the works, emphasizing the constraints of the eighteenth-century genres under which these authors wrote. The texts and annotations are based on extensive research in both published and manuscript holdings of archives in the United States and the United Kingdom. Appropriate for undergraduates as well as for scholars, Unchained Voices gives a clear sense of the major literary and cultural issues at the heart of African literature written in English.
