Black History Is World History

Black History Is World History started off as a course presented at Manchester Metropolitan University in 2015 by myself. The purpose of the course, which was opened to everyone, was to show how the history of the people of Africa and their descendants are powerfully tied to world history. In fact, since modern humans came out of African, then world history started in Africa and Black History IS world history.
