An Encyclopedia of Black History

By Dr. LeRoy H. Carter Jr

The roots of Black history run deep, stretching back to ancient African civilizations that were rich in culture, knowledge, and achievement. These early societies, such as the kingdoms of Mali, Songhai, and Great Zimbabwe, were centers of learning, trade, and innovation long before European powers arrived on the continent. Recognizing this history is essential for understanding both identity and resilience within the African and African-descended communities. It highlights a legacy that goes beyond the struggles of colonization and enslavement, showing the strength and creativity that shaped numerous cultures and continues to influence the world today. Black history is not only about survival but also about thriving, creativity, and ongoing contributions in the face of adversity.
