Book Synopsis If You Want to Learn Early African History Start Here by : Robin Walker
Download or read book If You Want to Learn Early African History Start Here written by Robin Walker and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-01-28 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What they had in common was that they were unsure of where to begin their reading and study but they still wanted to find out more information. This book was written to simplify that journey. As the author of When We Ruled a 700 plus page book on African history, I could also see the need to produce a smaller book that condenses and simplifies the information. I want to make the data as accessible as possible--hence this book. This book is in two parts. The first part is called If you want to learn Early African History START HERE. The second part is called 50 Questions and Answers on the History of Black People. The first part of the book, If you want to learn Early African History START HERE, is a general introduction to Classical African history covering the most important ancient and medieval empires. It began life as two separate lectures that I gave to introduce African history. One of the lectures was called When We Ruled: Thousands of Years of a Visible African Heritage. The second lecture was called The Lost Civilisations of Central Africa. To write this section of the book, I combined these two lectures into one narrative. In the final part of this section, I suggest other sources that a student could read to advance their knowledge even more. The second part of the book, 50 Questions and Answers on the History of Black People, began life when a colleague approached me to give him an extended interview on Black or African history. The colleague posed 50 varied questions to me to which I gave extended answers. He asked me about Nile Valley history, Ancient Kingdoms and Empires, The Slave Trade, earlier Black historians and their writings, etcetera. I hope that the 50 questions answer most of the questions that people raise concerning Black or African history. Robin Walker

Book Synopsis A Primer for Teaching African History by : Trevor R. Getz
Download or read book A Primer for Teaching African History written by Trevor R. Getz and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Primer for Teaching African History is a guide for college and high school teachers who are teaching African history for the first time, for experienced teachers who want to reinvigorate their courses, for those who are training future teachers to prepare their own syllabi, and for teachers who want to incorporate African history into their world history courses. Trevor R. Getz offers design principles aimed at facilitating a classroom experience that will help students navigate new knowledge, historical skills, ethical development, and worldviews. He foregrounds the importance of acknowledging and addressing student preconceptions about Africa, challenging chronological approaches to history, exploring identity and geography as ways to access historical African perspectives, and investigating the potential to engage in questions of ethics that studying African history provides. In his discussions of setting goals, pedagogy, assessment, and syllabus design, Getz draws readers into the process of thinking consciously and strategically about designing courses on African history that will challenge students to think critically about Africa and the discipline of history.

Book Synopsis The Civilizations of Africa by : Christopher Ehret
Download or read book The Civilizations of Africa written by Christopher Ehret and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With his focus on precolonial Africa, Christopher Ehret provides in The Civilizations of Africa: A History to 1800 a remarkably complete and original overview of African history during the long periods sparsely covered in most other general histories of the continent. He examines African inventions and civilizations from 16,000 BCE to 1800 CE from the northern tip of Tunisia to the Cape of Good Hope in the south. Logically organized by topic and era, Ehret’s heavily illustrated and easily accessible text reveals the diversity of African history. It explores the wide range of social and cultural as well as technological and economic change in Africa, and it depicts African agricultural, social, political, cultural, technological, and economic history in relation to developments in the rest of the world. Designed to address the glaring lack of texts concentrating on Africa before 1800, this book can be fruitfully combined with histories of Africa since 1800 to build a full and well-rounded understanding of the roles of Africa’s peoples in human history.

Download or read book History in Black written by Yaacov Shavit and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2001 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effort to trace the origins of human culture to Africa, rather than to Greece as dominant European thought has long contended, says Shavit (history of the Jewish people, Tel Aviv U.), is part of obsession with initial sources--a reaction to white western supremacy--that glosses over the vast web of transmission and borrowing that comprises the history of culture. Like European origin myths, he agrees that it has value for the self-awareness of African Americans and their status in society. Distributed in the US by ISBS.
