African American Men from Slavery to the Here and Now Charles Lucas

An overview of great African American Men and how they have fared as leaders from the brutality of slavery to where we are today after the election of the first African American President of the United States of America. The author focuses on leaders in areas such as the educational field, the religious sector, corporate America, the United States military, and in the United States government. Very little time is spent on the achievements of African American men. Therefore, the author believes that our sons and daughters need a short, comprehensible walk through the past that may be shared with peers of all races so that they will know what it took to get us to the here and now.
