From the Back Cover:
Since the opening years of the sixteenth century, Christian biblical scholarship has been the ally of racism, sometimes delibertely and sometimes unconsciously. The alliance has run the gamut from avid support of the black inferiority myth to a mere indifference to the situation; and at both extremes, the racial myths have found growing room. In all likelihood there are millions fo Christians today who still believe that the curse of Noah feel upon the black man. This fallacy was once taught by leading scholars and writers fo their day, and the successors of those scholars and writers have done very little to erase the fallacy. Secular writers have done more to correct these myths than biblical ones; and this is possibly one of the reasons that many young black Americans call the Holy Scripture 'the white man's bible.'
"This book attempts to do something that should have been done at least four hundred years ago. it attempts to portray the black man as he was viewed during the Old Testament times." --from the Preface
