Was Socrates black? How about Cleopatra? Was Greece colonized by Egypt? As absurd as these claims seem to be, they, and other “truths” are being taught today to college students across the country. Not Out of Africa is the first book to debunk these claims made by the Afrocentric movement. Dispensing with political correctness in favor of historical accuracy, professor Mary Lefkowitz presents a fascinating and scholarly look at each of these myths, meticulously… More >>
Not Out Of Africa: How “Afrocentrism” Became An Excuse To Teach Myth As History
GARBAGE!!
THIS BOOK SUCKS BIG TIME. IT’S FULL OF BIASED UNTRUTHS. THIS AUTHOR NEEDS TO JUST COME OUT AND ADMIT THE TRUTH THAT SHE’S RACIST TOWARDS AFRICANS AND EUROPEANS ARE SUPERIOR. THE ONLY MYTHS ARE THE ONES IN THIS BOOK!
Rating: 1 / 5
This is racism and hatred at it’s very best…The next thing she’ll write about is that Dr King was white…Give her a few centuries and her “like minded bigots” will get around to it….It’s interesting that a history of a people can only be told accurately by “proven” white scholars according to Left-a-witch….Thank God for the brave Afrocentrics that offer a different view of their “own” history…

Mary Lefkowitz’s book was written to massage White fears about the “dreaded Negro.”
She has made many mistakes in her book. She tells us that Hannibal was not Black but a “Semite,” when the term “Semitic,” is more of a lingustic and cultural rather than a racial term.
Hannibal was Black as his coins indicate. Mary Lefkowitz does not mention these coins. Some say the coins represents mahouts (elephant drivers). However, this is wrong as the Carthaginians mostly depicted aristocrats and gods and goddesses in statues etc.
Her book beats about the bush and does not really thrust into the depths of ‘Afrocentrism.”
She does not tells us that the Sphinx of Egypt depicts the face of a “Negro,” and she does not tell us why the face is Black.
There is a statue of Socrates indicating he was a “Negro.”
Before the Library of Alexandria was built, the ancient Black Egyptians had Libraries and Unversities even before the city was renamed “Alexandria.”
I recommend “Retake Your Fame,” by Aylmer von Fleischer as well as the works of J.A. Rogers and Ivan Van Sertima instead of this hysterical work.

This book is not even worth one star!!

This has to be the most ridiculous book that ever came out! I have read scientific evidence that proves that the ancient Egyptians had Black features. The Greeks themselves describe the ancient Egytians as dark skinned peoples with coarse hair. The description of Jesus was even “short, dark with an underdeveloped beard.” That sure don’t sound like Caucasian! I think Whites need to accept the FACT that Black Africans contributed a lot to the ancient world just like Blacks in America has contributed a lot. Whites love to discredit Black accomplishments. I even saw a plan where they said how to discredit Blacks at all costs. Is it just a coincidence that the nose of the Sphinx has been damaged? Any fool can see that it was a Black African woman! About what the author says about the Egyptians didn’t want to associate themselves with Blacks, well if that’s true, who do you think is responsible for that? Like Whites use of “divide and conquer” couldn’t have been used back then!! Whites have been using that trick for the longest! That’s why there’s much division amongst Blacks in America! We’re not fools! This book is nothing but racist garbage!!
