Summary
What is Black history? Did you know what Blacks were in Cortez's crew in Mexico, with Pizarro in Peru and Alvarado in Quito...that when Balboa discovered the Pacific Ocean, 30 Black people were with him...that when Alarcon and Coronado conquered Mexico, Black people were with them, too?
Any misunderstandings between Blacks and Whites in today's society tend to stem from the misconceptions about Blacks that have been allowed to thrive throughout the ages. The only way to help abolish stereotypes is to help present a more complete picture of the Black people throughout history. Black History for Beginners covers a rich but often ignored history and chronicles the Black struggle from capture and enslavement in Africa through the civil rights movement and up to today and the new and different kinds of struggles that Black people face today.

Very informative
Interesting to listen to a truer version of history than what we’ve been fed. Highly recommended.

Still Necessary 4 Decades Later
As an introductory summary, this book is still useful, if not vital in the face of the ignorant and bigoted 'Frontlash' against the perceived threat of racial equality that persists almost 40 years after it was first written. But while it will hopefully spark people's interest and cause them to seek out more information on the subject, the only reason to ever really buy this book is if you or someone who you know are completely ignorant of black history. (Which of course, is very likely if you went to school in the U.S.)
