Description
The Negro Question Part 7 Swarthy Memoirs of a Black American Revolution by Lee Cummings This book presents a unique perspective on the American Revolution, revealing the involvement of black people on both sides of the Atlantic. The memoirs described in the book detail the experiences of black colonists and the black continental army, shedding light on the often-overlooked contributions of black individuals during this period. The book also provides documentation, including ship manifests, that highlight the presence of black people in the 13 British colonies and their connections to black Britain and Germany. This historical account challenges traditional narratives and offers a fresh understanding of the American Revolution. By exploring the lives and experiences of black people during this time, Cummings provides a valuable insight into the complexities of the period.
