White Athena: A Critique of Afrocentrist Claims Volume 2
Autor Walter Slacken Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 iun 2015
Return to the fray of the Afrocentrist movement in the second volume of "White Athena."
Walter Slack follows up his first volume, which took to task those who claim that the Greeks and others stole their philosophy, science, and culture from black Africans-arguing that the world needs to give credit to the right people.
This volume is much less a comparison of diverse philosophies and cosmologies, and much more an evaluation of claims regarding imagined imports of technical, cultural, religious, and practical artifacts.
Slack examines numerous Afrocentrist claims, including that cultural tutors from black Africa roamed early Europe, Muslim Spain, and pre-Columbian Mesoamerica and even traveled to ancient China with all sorts of cultural, intellectual, and scientific contributions.
The author concludes that most damaging to the credibility of Afrocentrists is their willingness to adopt any and every theory that supports their ideological thesis of African cultural supremacy-overtly or covertly-based upon race. Open your mind to an honest and impartial view of world history with "White Athena, Volume 2."
