This book is definately a masterpiece. Dr. Clarke was truly a genuis, he goes through the slave trade and shows the roles of both various European world imperialist powers, and african empires that played a role in the slave trade. He uses referrences from portuguese and spanyard sources that shows the role of Christopher Colombus, and his crew men in the african holocaust as well as the holocaust against the indigenous people of america. He shows how the crusades played a crucial role in the second rise of europe and its exploitation of most of the world. This book is excellent, it is well researched and it answers questions to many unknown or know but unanswered questions. The personality of Christopher Colombus and europe's mentality towards the rest of the world has been exposed. I seriously recommend this book for all who are interested in the subject.

Dr. Clarke has again crushed myths of the Atlantic Slave Trade. The number one myth is "Afrikans are just as much to blame for selling slaves as Europeans". If ANYONE has ever said this to you and you didn't tell them that was a pile of buffalo poo poo, than you need this book! If you agreed with that statement you need this book. Dr. Clarke breaks down our ways back before the trade. And the BIG differences between European & Arab slavery to Afrikan slavery. TUA NTR Dr. Clarke!!! In which 99% of the people don't know how Afrikan slave system worked. And yes where are our memorials? And the true nature of the Atlantic Slave traders is exposed in detail. Also what did Afrikans do when they found out what was REALLY going on? That answer reveals our nature and how beautiful, strong and weak we are. This books hits EVERY corner about the Slave Trade. And crushes alot of myths. Again Dr. Clarke provide a slamming bibliography. That is a library listing by itself! Every child should read this book when starting to learn our history in America. And the strategies used by both sides. I could go on & on, this book is just everything about the subject in one book!

Dr. Clarke's work continues to provide insight and place characters and events in history in their proper historical context.

His presence continues to missed. Dr. Clarke challenges the lies, mis-information and confusion that has whitewashed Afrikan people and the rest of the world with regard to this ignorant johnny-come-lately, lost sailor thug-criminal wannabe. This book is a must read, that provides a tremendous bibliography to further educate, prepare and inspire the reader for further study.

Dr. Clarke presents to us an interesting book that asks the question "Where's our Memorial?" The Jews, Irish and Asians remember what happened to them, but somewhere down the line, we forgot. As Dr. Clarke says this was the biggest crime in history. Europeans set in motion a type of slavery that was inhumane and savagelike.
Another misconception is that the Afrikans, and Natives Europeans encountered were brought "civilization." This couldn't be further from the truth because the European just denounced any culture they didn't understand. What is most interesting as well is 700 years earlier the European was enslaved and brought out of the Dark Ages because of the Moors(Afrikans) and Arabs. The Moors introduced chess, public baths, water systems, 70 universities and brought literacy to the kings and queens of Europe. The same Afrikans they enslaved on the Gold Coast(read the book to understand why it is Gold Coast) had been the ones to birth their enlightenmet. Also Europe(who were the only ones) believed the world was flat in their ignorance. Afrikans already knew this wasn't true based on two voyages. One was with the king of Mali, and the other maybe in the time of Ramesees III. For more on this read They Came before Columbus.

Thank You Dr. Clarke

Professor John H. Clark has done a amazing analysis with providing the reader with a clear understanding on how the slave trade and genocides was instituted and systematized into what is now identified as capitalism on a gobal scale. This is a must read for anyone exploring the history of the African American history.

This book opened my eyes to different things and pointed me on a quest for more knowledge of the history of this "discovery" and the results of his findings. The book is very informational and intriguing. It will definitely open your eyes and have you picturing things as you haven't done before.

I actually did a video review of this book on youtube. This was the first time that I've read a book of this kind. Even if you have a elementary grade understanding about history, you will be able to decipher that the research that Dr. Clarke presented in his book were based on fact. Dr. Clarke gives us the history that has been glazed over to make european culture seem justified in their actions. THe truth of the matter is that european culture is the most agressive when it comes to the domination of the world's people. This book will give you a breakdown and open your eyes. Read it in one day. Fantastic

This book should be read with caution!

The information in this book can cause a mental breakdown. A mental breakdown of the former self, (slave) into a liberated born again human being.

THe white man's plan from the beginning was for global expansion and complete dominance of the WORLD'S resources.

clarke knew his stuff.people can refute his claims but they hold merit

All persons who seek to know the truth, and be set free from lies that was taught us. should read this very insightful book by the great master educator.
