Bookshelf: Stolen Legacy by George G M James

""

27 March, 2012

Stolen Legacy by George G. M. James aims to improve race relations worldwide by revealing the underlying truth concerning the contribution of the African continent to the rest of the world.

It is an attempt to show that the true authors of Greek philosophy were not the Greeks but the Egyptians. The Greeks’ theft of the African philosophical legacy has led to the mistaken opinion that the African continent has made no intellectual contribution to civilisation—a misrepresentation that has become the root of racial prejudice.




By bringing this information to the attention of the world, James hopes to remedy these prejudices which have corrupted human relations.
