5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent reading for the youth of today, February 1, 1999

This review is from: 100 Amazing Facts About the Negro With Complete Proof: A Short Cut to the World History of the Negro (Paperback)

This book should be incorporated into the mainstream of our educational system. I am still amazed at how the truth to these facts aren't recognized or known by Americans today. For instance: Just last year it was acknowledged that Thomas Jefferson had decendants that were black. This book was written in the 50's, and on page 8, fact #42 it relates how he along with other slave owners during that time often had extramarital affairs with their slaves. This was written over 40 years ago and it's now coming to pass. Please read this book to experience the truth that has for so many years been underground.

WOW!

This book has provided a completely different perspective on history for me. There is so much that I did not know. The fact that this information is not made available in public schools is a huge disservice to us all. The title alone will prevent so many people from looking inside which will be a huge mistake on their part. This book is full of history that effects us all: black, white, brown, red, yellow- all the flippn colors of the rainbow. It is truly amazing. After I read a few excerpts to my mother she was astounded and asked to borrow my copy until her's arrived. The first copy of this book I purchased for myself in April; and the other two copies I purchased in May. I sent one to my mother and mailed the other one to my uncle in California. I have added sevel other books by this author to my wish list.
One of the best aspects of this book is the references to libraries; articles; ect and a few pictures.
Buy this book; you will not be disappointed
