Nile Valley Contributions to Civilization: Exploding the Myths

It's a wonderful book that needs to be read by everyone! Especially, black folks. For we have to lift ourselves up and discover that we do have a history worth knowing about and without our history, there really wouldn't be European history, etc. For Africans were the first to walk the planet, we have the oldest writing system, etc. This book is worth every penny.

Oh my God! This is truly a book that needs to book on the book shelves of every school library and in the hands of all teachers, whether they teach european history(plagarized african history) or are an african american studies teacher! Every parent also needs to add this to their book shelves and teach their children what the system won't! Don't be blind anyomore and stand up and take your place as the Pharoahs and Queens that we ARE! I have already begun and recommend that you do the same. Mr. Browder's daughter, Atlantis Browder, also has a chilren's book, for beginning, that is a good basis to start your children off with, I did! You feel betrayed for not being taught this in school, I know I did! Peace My Pharoahs and Queens of the World!

Although I have been out of college many years, I must say, in all of my schooling, I have not had a history lesson such as this. This book was excellent in showing the hidden history of Africans and our true accomplishments. I was amazed at how much has been taken from us and how many contributions have been made by our people. Much has been used without proper accreditation. I highly recommend this book and think that it should be read across all races.

Every black household should have a copy of this book, and it should be required reading of all family members.

I have to admit that this is what I consider to be the first real "african-american" history book that I have come across in my school years (although I had to find it on my own). I can only pray that maybe my grandchildren and greatgrandchildren will have the opportunity to recieve their lesson in african american pride in public/private schooling. But today, students remain subjected to a view of our past in a perspective that completely slants our perception of who we are.
