Jews were not the first monotheist,
By Free "Free" (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lessons from History, Advanced Edition: A Celebration in Blackness (Paperback)
Good book but my comment is really a response to the other comment. Jews were not the first monotheistic people, in fact, Jews are henotheist. Jews agree that there are multiple Gods, however they only worship one. The Egyptian leader Amenhotep 4, or Akhenaton, was a monotheist.
5.0 out of 5 stars

Wonderful teaching resource,
This review is from: Lessons from History, Elementary Edition: A Celebration in Blackness (Paperback)
This is a wonderful educational resource and a great outline for creating lesson plans and study units. Highly recommended for parents and teachers interested in educating their students in African and "African-American" history from the perspective of the African/"African-American" instead of the European version of history that is commonly taught.
