From the Browder File: 22 Essays on the African American Experience is nonfiction

Black culture has been around for thousands of years. Most of my ancestors were the ones who built this world from the bottom up. In the times of the Egyptians, they knew how to read, write, build architecture like The Pyramids of Giza, build and fly helicopters (yes, there is evidence of flying machines on ancient Egyptian pyramid walls), and so much more. A lot of the things that we have today had already been discovered or built thousands of years ago. This book exposes you to the areas of culture, slavery, education, racism, money, and others that affect black families today. It also includes sayings from powerful speakers and groups like Martin Luther King Jr, Black Panthers, Malcolm X, and other black activists that can reflect on what it meant to be black. This book has 22 essays on different topics about the black culture. I would highly recommend this book to the people that want to go more in depth about black culture. The main point of the book is to provide evidence of African-American contributions to history and to be more conscious of black culture and heritage.
