Not Out of Africa: How Afrocentrism Became an Excuse to Teach Myth As History Book

As a graduate student of history, I hadn't given Afrocentrism a second thought until a fellow student produced the book Black Athena and began expounding the thefts Aristotle had made from the library in Alexandria. Clearly, only a classicist could explain this phenomenal belief of historical larceny and cover-up.
Here you can learn where the bodies are buried. Lefkowitz is a professor specializing in ancient Mediterranean culture, so she is able to explain what evidence supports and refutes the ideas of Afrocentrism. The Greeks admired the Egyptian culture and certainly gleaned some ideas from it, made certain exchanges, as will always happen when two civilizations exist so close together. As to theft of materials from the library in Alexandria, Aristotle could not have stolen anything from a library built after his death.
In some cases, footnotes in Afrocentric literature actually lead nowhere or cite sources that do not exist. Much of the evidence for Afrocentrism comes from oral traditions of the Masons, who teach that Egypt had a sort of Masonic system. Lefkowitz writes like a scholar, which means she is sometimes tedius. For a project of disclosure like this, however, tedium is necessary for complete coverage of the subject.
