100 Amazing Facts About the Negro with Complete Proof

I was amazed at the amount of information revealed in one place about our history! Yet, I was saddened to know that so much of this information is not known. Now, I am inspired to do more to "spread" the word. Kudos to J. A. Rogers for bringing these facts to light. This is great reading for all "races".

"100 Amazing Facts About the Negro With Complete Proof" is an excellent form of information. In fact it shows accomplishments by Blacks before the slave trade. A.J. Rogers did an excellent job in gathering this information for others to learn and know about the great works of African/Black Americans. I recommend this book and hope that this information is used for further research and teachings of our history.

I am a Negro who likes classical music very much! I consider this Music European. It's foreign to me though I like it. I never knew (until the day I read this book) that Ludwig van Beethoven was a " Blackamoor" according to the writers of his time! This is a must read for any person of color! The Facts presented in this book are not taught in the schools we attend. I give it Five Stars for the well Researched Facts!

This material should be in every school room but I know it wouldn't be to the interests of the controlling bodies
of America or it's government educators who would rather maintain the ideas of European Superiority. At
the very least, it should be on the book shelves of all Black learning Institutions.

I was surprised that I didn't just glance through the book like I thought I would but I was engrossed! We need more books about how ethnic cultures have made America and contributed in so many ways and in so many arenas!

A well researched and well presented history that I first saw in the mid 60's in my grandparents home.
I would so like to see this and similar publications in school and public libraries. A treasury of knowledge, for all people,
waiting to be unearthed.

This is a very interesting book of little know facts about Black/African culture, contributions etc. Is sad Africans and their descendants are barely recognized for all their accomplishments on the world stage.

I think everyone who wants to know more about our history SHOULD order this book. Its good to share w/your smaller children so that they may know more about their culture. I think this is a wonderful book for Black History Month also. AND I think it may be a great buy for some type of project for school. A parent can teach/learn w/the child/student. THEN the student can in return share what he has learned w/his class. VERY good buy.

Excellent read and very informative. Makes me sad how other countries embrace the contributions of the Black race and the US erases it. Pathetic that our children, black and white, don't know the contributions of all races.
