POPSSomeone asked: Which is superior: white history or black history? Are you racist? Anyway In I have been taught intricately about ALL history It’s not just about black and white as those terms in my view are redundant, As you have Native American History, Asian history, (that’s not even going into Chinese History alone which is very vast) Arab history, etc etc. Personally I would love to call this blog African history, however so many people of African descent currently are living in the Americas not by their own choosing might I add & they are just as important as the people in Africa. Am I a racist, no I’m not, however I detest the way people of color have been treated historically (especially in the last 500 years ) & are continually treated. If you read history perhaps you wouldn’t ask such a question. It was not Africans who started this whole Race thing.

POPSReading List: Hitler's Black Victims by Clarence Lusane Received this book yesterday and I can't wait to read it after I finish White Like Me by Tim Wise. Black Germans were stripped of their German citizenship and because of that they have never received reparations. There were a few Black German Nazis, some were even Lutwaffe pilots, just as there were Jewish Nazi collaborators such as Abraham Gancwajch: Black Germans identified as German first and Black second. The U.S Holocaust Museum does not mention Black German victims of the Holocaust in any of their displays even though ample evidence exists in their archives. Since learning of the existence of this book, I have been wondering why I have never heard any of the Jewish concentration camp survivors mention Black German prisoners in the camps. Hitler had mixed race (Black-German) children sterilized; they were among his first victims. Preview @ Google books: http://bit.ly/sSduxO.
