    I encourage you to check out our “What Do I Read Next: Book Loan Program”

    Dr. Ben, Mr. Clarke, & Ivan Sertima I used to watch their lectures on tape as a teen. This was when I was early in my learning stages of African History. They really built the foundation for me to go beyond what I learned in school or what is taught in church or any other religious circle. Its so important to understand African history if you want to know about the 7 liberal arts or religion for that matter b/c if you don't you will just be a donkey chasing a carrot thinking your on the right path....
