Black History Is...

African American history is American History! Online there are several examples of this truth. The Smiling Reaper has links to Black History that helps explain, document, and celebrate the History of Americans of African descent.

 ...Important

 ... Our Heritage

... World History

 

On this page there are references to; individuals, organizations, writings, accomplishments, and of course history, all with a connection to Black men and women.  There is documentation of crimes, narrative histories, and the odd miscellaneous fact, along with links to additional resources cataloging the history of Americans, British, and Canadian people of African heritage whose stories are seldom told.

This page is just a portal to the rich and almost limitless documentation of accomplishment (often in the face of tremendous opposition and limited resources) of my people.  The descendants of slaves, they transcended any possible expectations, making and continuing to make, contributions in every aspect of society.

I ask you to please explore this site and its links.  There is a most rewarding discovery awaiting you!
