9798194140701: AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY FROM 1619 TO 2026: Understanding pre-1619 America corrects a historical distortion in which African American history is treated as beginning with enslavement.

Synopsis

This encyclopedia's central historical argument is that African American history is American history: the nation's agricultural economy, industrial technology, constitutional development, popular culture, and civic institutions cannot be accurately understood without full accounting of African American contribution and struggle.
The arc from 1619 to 2026 is not only a story of survival but also one of extraordinary technical creativity. From the arrival of the first documented Africans in British North America to the present day, African Americans have shaped American life through transformative inventions, often while facing slavery, segregation, patent exclusion, and underinvestment.
