Christopher Columbus and the Afrikan Holocaust Slavery and the Rise of European Capitalism

Dr. Clarke provides an overall analysis of a period of history that has been systematically falsified and hidden from the serious scrutiny of African-centered scholars and researchers and other committed individuals. He points to concepts that are keys to unveiling that truth about African history and destroying the 'Big Lies' about white supremacy.In Professor Clark's continual quest for African truth, this work is a potent articulation of an all too neglected period of African world history and sets the stage for a more expansive publication dealing with slavery and its impact on Africa and the world. Dr. Clarke challenges the traditional views of African Civilizations and its strength and weaknesses before the enslavement and colonialism periods. He challenges the Eurocentric view of Columbus as discovered and states that he set in motion the genocidal process and renewed western racism. Professor Clarke points out that Columbus set in motion, political forces that established a global system of exploitation. This system has its roots in the Columbus Era and produced European world domination. The fifty year period from 1492 to 1536 A.D. has special significance for world history. During this period, the European's world was able to synthesize various economic, political and cultural forces and lay the foundation for a global system of power, centered around materialism, capitalism and imperialism. At the heart of the new global system of European-American materialism was a super exploitation of the indigenous people of the Western Hemisphere and the enslavement of Africans. As a result, two worlds collided and left us with a legacy of genocidal institutionalized White supremacy. African and Native American humanism lost out to the system of European materialism.
