The Destruction of Black Civilization took Chancellor Williams sixteen years of research and field study to compile. The book, which was to serve as a reinterpretation of the history of the African race, was intended to be ""a general rebellion against the subtle message from even the most 'liberal' white authors (and their Negro disciples): 'You belong to a race of nobodies. You have no worthwhile history to point to with pride.'"" The book was written at a time when many black students, educators, and scholars were starting to piece together the connection between the way their history was taught and the way they were perceived by others and by themselves. They began to question assumptions made about their history and took it upon themselves to create a new body of historical research. The book is premised on the question: ""If the Blacks were among the very first builders of civilization and their land the birthplace of civilization, what has happened to them that has left them since then, at the bottom of world society, precisely what happened? The Caucasian answer is simple and well-known: The Blacks have always been at the bottom."" Williams instead contends that many elements—nature, imperialism, and stolen legacies— have aided in the destruction of the black civilization. The Destruction of Black Civilization is revelatory and revolutionary because it offers a new approach to the research, teaching, and study of African history by shifting the main focus from the history of Arabs and Europeans in Africa to the Africans themselves, offering instead ""a history of blacks that is a history of blacks. Because only from history can we learn what our strengths were and, especially, in what particular aspect we are weak and vulnerable. Our history can then become at once the foundation and guiding light for united efforts in serious[ly] planning what we should be about now."" It was part of the evolution of the black revolution that took place in the 1970s, as the focus shifted from politics to matters of the mind.

Dr. Kamau Kambon Warrior Elder, Author, Pan-Afrikan, Solutionary

On the 15th February 1965, after an extensive tour of the African continent, Omowale Malcolm X was scheduled to deliver The Program of his new formation, the Organisation of Afro-American Unity (OAAU). This presentation was postponed due to a fire bombing of his family home.

The rescheduled date was 21st February - which would become the fateful day that our "living Black Manhood" paid the ultimate price for African Liberation.

The mark of a great leader is that they leave a well defined program for those who come after them. The program of the OAAU is the result of much study of the African World, beginning with the conditions of Africans in America. It was penned by the illustrious Baba John Henrik Clarke, in consultation with Omowale Malcolm X, his big sister Ella Collins and others in the OAAU Leadership.

Due to mass revisionism of the life & legacy of Omowale Malcolm X, this document, along with his OAAU founding rally speeches are woefully under appreciated. Together, they reveal his very clear Black Nationalist Pan-Afrikanist Orientation and pragmatic approach to solving the problems of African people the world over.

We share this now, in the hope to shine a light on the legacy of Papa Omowale and the powerful spirit of the organisation he was in the process of building. Listen to the clarity of perspective; the practicality of the program; and its enduring relevance to us in todays world.

2024 Miss São Paulo winner humilated with hateful, racist comments after victory. Do reactions demonstrate Brazil's rejection of black beauty or that black women cannot be judged as equally beautiful as white women?
