John Henrik Clarke's finest work!

Africans At The Crossroads is one of the best books you can ever read. John Henrik Clarke gives unsurmountable wisdom with each chapter as he details our struggle. He sheds light on noteworthy leaders like Malcolm X, Patrice Lumumba, Kwame Nkrumah, Marcus Garvey and others in this magnum opus of a publication. His death is a tragic loss especially at a time when the world is filled with craven pseudoscholars like Jesse Lee Petersucker and Skip Gates and Scary Elder. I had to hold back tears while watching his lectures after I found out that he passed away in 1999. This book as with everything else that John Henrik Clarke can give you is as good as gold. REST IN PEACE JOHN HENRIK CLARKE!!!

John henrik clarke is "GOD" in the flesh

His works are profound. although, he has many critics who would like to ... his legacy. When i first read this book it really opened me up to the problems facing black men/women right here in the belly of the beast "America". I would recommend this book to anyone looking to face the problems that lingers still in the black communities all over the world!!!

An incredible book

This book helps to remove the viel of ignorance. Dr. Clarke towards the end of the book gives a list of recommended reading material. He informs of past and present problems, gives recommended solutions to our problems, and then encourages us to move forward. Plainly, he forces us to think about what we've been told about ourselves.

Inspirational, the work of an African icon

Avoid fakes, this man was a genius. He passed in July 1998 and his works will now receive the attention they richly deserve. Fiercely African centred, Henrik Clarke was determined to define a political, philosophical and spiritual account for the lives of Africans, particularly in the Diaspora. This works contextualises the African situation today in the siege of Africa over some 3000 or more years. His major concerns are with the falsified portrayal of history through non-African descriptions of events such as the raid on Entebbe and the African independence movement in the midst of this century. In the essay entitled "White Nationalism", Henrik Clarke destroys the mythology of solutions from white sources and looks at the structure behind enslavement/colonialism and now capitalism. This is a crucial text for those studying Africa.
