This is a great little volume! It covers just about all the topics covered in African-American history and although it lacks an compelling (interesting) narrative thread, the accompanying maps are great. The index helps find things quickly. My only concern is passages like this: "Two of the most famous and influential members of the Klan during this period [1920s] were the 29th President of the United States Warren G. Harding... and Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black." Harding's KKK membership is alleged and there's much evidence that he never joined and Black did admit to once joining (then resigning), he most certainly was never an influential member of the Klan.

Shalawam history on black civilization before Christopher Columbus discovered s#!t black kings and slave routed from do called Africa to the 4 corners of the earth truth proof documents get this book you will be mad if I u let this slip away atlas of the slave trade wake up black America 😡

This is the type of African-American history book I have been searching for! The Atlas of African-American History and Politics offers not only a detailed chronilogical narrative of the African-American's history from slavery to today, but also clean-crisp visuals to clarify. You will learn and see the actual routes that were taken during slave trades. Not only is this book great for African-American study courses, but every household in America should have a copy of this easy read, yet informative atlas.

If you care about the history we aren't taught in US and world history in regard to black people you will find this book priceless. I bought it to use with my kids for homeschooling. Many people if they know any black history it is United States specific and there is no real connectedness to the African diaspora. This book fills in a lot of blanks, strips away whitewashed history and connects people of African descent (even though it's centered through the lens of the US). It's a great starting place and a wonderful reference and teaching tool.
