A JOURNEY TO NUBIA & KEMET

Exploring African History, Culture, and Contributions

News & Announcements

Journey to Nubia & Kemet Scholastic Edit
Arrow

"We are truly thrilled to have read this textbook with our students.  In a world where our black, brown and indigenous children are often exposed to stereotypes and the erasing of history, Angel Brown-Harriott's work reclaimed the innovation of our early ancestors.  Ms. Rodriguez and myself were able to have deep conversations with our students and open their minds.

African Centered Education: Theory & Practice

Kmt G Schockley and Kofi Lomotey, Howard University 2020

"A "must have" children's curriculum that teaches about Ancient Egypt. The book includes contributions from Tony Browder.  A must have for teachers, homeschoolers as

well as essential for your personal library."

"I used this book and read it from cover to cover with the children.  I asked the principal to purchase a class set."

My World Literature Course

When I returned from ASALH, I immediately returned to the study and teaching of Ancient Kemet Civilization, using your book to supplement what I had already taught (the textbook had nothing on the contributions of Ancient Kemet to world civilization, so I turned to my own personal library and to your great resource). It was great meeting you.
