I have recently really got into reading and would like to know what books i could read. I'm also very interested in the power of the higher self 'The subconcious mind'. If anyone has any good reccomendations for books please put them down with names and locations of the shops they were bought from.jamflag

An alternative way of delaing with this would be for you to do what white people do when they are considering the purchase of books.

They go to a white bookshop.

Perhaps if you state where you reside, people might be able to suggest the names of some bookshops owned by Africans that you could visit.

I would definately suggest these for a beginner:

Before The Mayflower

Afrikan People and European Holidays: A Mental Genocide Book I

From Babylon to Timbuktu: A History of the Black Races

look fo rand patronize black book store...



great place to start and lay foundation for books you will read later is at the top



"Africana encyclopedia" by Professors Appiah and Gates

TSA,

I like to read a lot of autobiographies, especially those that have those " overcometh" themes in them. I haven't had as much time for reading as I have in the past, but I have read books like Kinship by The late Phillipe Wamba and Dorie by Doris Van Stone( far as this book you might have to go in a Christian book store to get this)> I also like to read a lot of short stories.
