Light and Consciousness: Soul Food for the Starving Mind, Volume 1

Light and Consciousness: Soul Food for the Starving Mind

Western education has been full of gaps with respect to the Black experience, historically and in contemporary times. Due diligence has not been given to the many heroes, icons, and actors that shape the experience of Africans in the global diaspora. This monograph is a pocket guide of information and stories that tell the unknown, lost, and hidden stories of Black people that have not been explored in Western pedagogy.

These are the stories that you weren't taught in school. The typical classroom does not have names, places, or activities. This guide is intended to expose the reader to new information, regardless of age or level of education. Each volume contains information about a particular event or person designed to introduce the reader to the actors, happenings, and time period. The intent is that the reader absorbs the information and seeks further reading beyond this guide, thereby setting themselves on a path to more profound enlightenment.
