Overview of
African-American History
This text seeks to broaden your knowledge and appreciation of the contributions of a group that has been either ignored or marginalized in traditional historical narratives. You will learn more about the people, sociopolitical forces and the places that have defined the African American presence in this country.
The history that this text will tell will start where all good histories do – at the beginning. For a study of African Americans, that beginning had its start in Africa. Indeed, there would be no African-Americans without Africa. From there, the story will weave a complex tapestry of historic events knit together by the delicate threads of time, circumstance and active human agents that together present a hauntingly intricate account of a group that has been integral to the very existence of the nation.
A Long Time Coming is not the most definitive or exhaustive text you will read on African American History, but it is perhaps one of the most engaging and interactive texts you will encounter in the digital space. Embrace the “a-ha” moments you are sure to encounter and thank you for the time you will invest in learning more about African American history as you read this text.
