Historical overview of the role of African cultures in world history.

This second volume of Introduction to the History of African Civilization examines Africa's history in the controversial twentieth century. It focuses on the methods of domination that were employed by colonial powers, and the new methods of domination, which were invented and employed by Western nations in the post-colonial period. While the book covers the partition of Africa, the nature and impact of colonial rule and the post- colonial situation in Africa, it is not simply a history text, for it investigates matters usually avoided in historical studies of twentieth century Africa, including the psychological impact of colonialism on the emergent middle class. Also explored is the impact of the IMF and World Bank on African economies in the post-colonial era.

Introduction to the History of African Civilization explores the major issues dominating African Civilization from the earliest recorded period to the eve of colonial conquest of the continent. C. Magbaily Fyle begins with a discussion of the myths and prejudices underlying most analyses of African issues, and moves into a discussion of the origin of humanity; the similarities between the classical Nile valley civilizations of Egypt, Nubia, Kush, and Axum; and the spread of Islam through African societies. He portrays the systems of precolonial government and society, including the role of women in governance, as well as traditional trade and agricultural patterns. Fyle provides a new perspective on the Islamic Jihads, shifting focus from Sokoto and Macina to the Senegambia and the Upper Guinea region, and a revised interpretation of the Atlantic slave trade, which includes the importance of African objectors to this process. He also discusses important cultural features such as the traditional African food, architecture, and typical structures of towns.

The purpose of this book is to uncover the true history of sub-Saharan Africans, Africans in Diaspora, including African-Americans in context to world history and that of civilization from its inception. This context refutes the white supremacists claim that blacks have no history of achievements or accomplishments to human advancement prior to slavery and related emancipation. It demonstrates that blacks are the first human species, founders of civilization and its advancements. There is one civilization and that is African civilization. Western civilization is a replica of that singular civilization founded in Antiquity. Black African civilization's rebirth in Europe spawned the Renaissance, Age of Reason, Enlightenment, and Modernity. African civilization is the root, origin and master blueprint of all religions. During Antiquity all gods and goddesses were made in the image of sub-Saharan Africans, Africans in Diaspora, including African-Americans. All Saviors of Mankind, including Jesus, Buddha, Moses, Abraham, etc., were made in the image of Africans in Diaspora. The book highlights how Western ethnocentrism, xenophobia, distortions of religion, and racism that intensified during African slavery and colonization remade these images to appear as Aryan or Nordic as possible. All credit for the development of civilization and achievements were seized by these Western conquerors who reigned within the last 400 years. The 10,000 years or more of black African hegemony was purposely purged from recorded history. The purpose of this purge is to brainwash the more than 80 percent of the world's population that is colored to accept substandard wages and conditions to facilitate the accumulation of wealth and privilege by those who claim to be white. The book highlights the evidence that the first people and civilizations of Europe, Asia, Far East, Pacific Islands and Americas were direct descendants of the sub-Saharan Africans, Africans in Diaspora, including African-Americans. These blacks established all leaps forward from primitive society to the early civilizations that would spawn modernity. In addition, the book highlights evidence that the African hegemony maintained cultural and commercial ties globally from Antiquity to prior to Columbus and European invasions. Through Masonic secrecy the African civilization and its Mystery System survived the Inquisition, the rise of European nationalism and xenophobia to find its way to the North American colonies. As such, colonist founded the future superpower, the United States of America (USA), on principles and values accrued from Africa's Mystery System drawn from the Dogon-Egyptian civilization. The strength of this new nation depends on leaders that appear to fulfill the Pharaohic Karma of Antiquity and build a modern African global hegemony learning from the actual achievements and avoid mistakes of the past.
