Requests:  0 Summary:  "From one of our premier writers, scholars, and public intellectuals: a surprising, inspiring, often boldly infuriating, highly instructive and entertaining compendium of curiosities regarding African Americans. In 1934, 100 Amazing Facts About the Negro With Complete Proof: A Short Cut to the World History of the Negro was published by Joel A. Rogers, a largely self-educated black journalist and historian. Now with élan and erudition--and winning enthusiasm--Henry Louis Gates, Jr., gives us a corrective yet loving homage to Rogers's work. Relying on the latest scholarship, Gates leads us on a romp through African American history and gossip in question and answer format: Who was the first African American? What was the second Middle Passage? Did black people own slaves? Why was cotton king? Who was the first black president in North America? How much African ancestry does the average African American have? Who really invented "the talented tenth"? What were the biggest acts of betrayal within the enslaved community? Who was the first black American woman to be a self-made millionaire? For 100 questions, 100 answers, intended to shine light on the sheer complexity and diversity of being African American."--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 973.0496 Ga Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.0496 Gates Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.0496 Ga Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.0496 Ga Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.0496 Ga Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.0496 Ga Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.0496 Ga Checked In Add Copy to MyList
