Where are the children's books that explain the Maroon societies across the Americas, on Mali/ Ghana/ Zimbabwe/ Nile Valley civilisation. I cant find them.

Is history all that matters or even the most important?
I have been suggesting this:
Amazon.com: Teach Yourself Electricity and Electronics (0639785330844): Stan Gibilisco; Stan Gibilisco, Stan Gibilisco: Books
I had a White man that hangs around a Black website tell me it's a great book but no Black people have said anything about it.
The history of the last 500 years has been a record of what people with technology can do to people without technology and the people without technology can't do a damn thing about it. This excess emphasis on Black history is a waste of time.
