Book Description
From the award-winning author of Breaking the Chains and Black Indians comes a complete history of Black Americans in New York State. Chronological, with photos throughout, and with new contributions by Herb Boyd, here is an essential book for teachers, librarians and young readers. From the arrival of the first enslaved Africans in New Amsterdam in 1609 to the Harlem Renaissance to the first Black mayor of New York City to the impact of the Black Lives Matter movement, here is the complete and newly updated history of Black Americans in New York. First published in 1997, Black Legacy reasserts the essential work of teacher and historian William Loren Katz, who was committed to documenting and uplifting the stories of Black Americans’ courage and creativity, resilience and rebellion. In his new introduction, Herb Boyd, who also adds material bringing the book up to the present day, writes that Katz’s oeuvre, “represents the full tableau of Black accomplishments and aspirations.” Here are the Black politicians and poets, abolitionists, athletes and activists, the first Black children to attend public school, the journalists who covered their stories, and those like Paul Robeson, W.E.B. DuBois, Frederick Douglass, Marcus Garvey, Malcolm X, the Black Panthers, and others who fought for Black freedom. Sojourner Truth, Madame C.J. Walker, the growth of the Seneca Village and Weeksville communities, the Savoy and Cotton clubs of the Jazz Age; the near death of Martin Luther King Jr. at Harlem Hospital, the discovery of an African burial site at Trinity Church in lower Manhattan, Shirley Chisholm’s election to Congress, and so much more can be discovered in these pages. Written with economy and flair, and including historical maps, illustrations, and photographs throughout, Black Legacy is a fascinating read, a necessary teaching tool, and a great addition to the literature of the history of Black America.

Book Description
Beginning with Latin America in the fifteenth century, this book, first published in 2005, is a social history of the experiences of African Muslims and their descendants throughout the Americas, including the Caribbean. The record under slavery is examined, as is the post-slavery period into the twentieth century. The experiences vary, arguably due to some extent to the Old World context. Muslim revolts in Brazil are also discussed, especially in 1835, by way of a nuanced analysis. The second part of the book looks at the emergence of Islam among the African-descended in the United States in the twentieth century, with successive chapters on Noble Drew Ali, Elijah Muhammad, and Malcolm X, with a view to explaining how orthodoxy arose from varied unorthodox roots.

Book Description
The transatlantic slave trade forced millions of Africans into bondage. Until the early nineteenth century, African slaves came to the Americas in greater numbers than Europeans. In the Shadow of Slavery provides a startling new assessment of the Atlantic slave trade and upends conventional wisdom by shifting attention from the crops slaves were forced to produce to the foods they planted for their own nourishment. Many familiar foods—millet, sorghum, coffee, okra, watermelon, and the "Asian" long bean, for example—are native to Africa, while commercial products such as Coca Cola, Worcestershire Sauce, and Palmolive Soap rely on African plants that were brought to the Americas on slave ships as provisions, medicines, cordage, and bedding. In this exciting, original, and groundbreaking book, Judith A. Carney and Richard Nicholas Rosomoff draw on archaeological records, oral histories, and the accounts of slave ship captains to show how slaves' food plots—"botanical gardens of the dispossessed"—became the incubators of African survival in the Americas and Africanized the foodways of plantation societies.
