The Black Man (Annotated): Father of Civilization

In his profoundly influential work, James Morris Webb argues that the black man was the father of civilization, born in the land of Egypt, and that the different branches of science and art were simply transmitted to other races, which, as the ages have rolled by have only been enlarged, and to some extent improved upon. A seminal text, The Black Man was widely read within the Garvey Movement, the Rastafarians, and other early African identity and Black Nationalist groups.
