Not Out of Africa: How afrocentrism Became an Excuse to Teach Myth as History
Was Socrates black? How about Cleopatra? Was Greece colonized by Egypt? As absurd as these claims seem, they, and other truths are being taught to college students across the country. In Not Out of Africa, Lefkowitz debunks the claims made by the Afrocentric movement, presenting a fascinating and scholarly look at these myths and explaining why they have propagated despite an overwhelming lack of real evidence. Illustrations.
