Here are some books I would recommend. This new book “Maatism” by Jaja Malik Atenra is claiming to be a follow-up to Dr. Chancellor William’s Destruction of Black Civilization the only other major book that does that is Blueprint for Black Power by Dr. Amos Wilson.

Yes I’ve read it once already. He gives out a structure of government that like minded Africans should come together and build. And he logically explains how women are a strategic central force to state building. Lots of simple, condensed concepts that expound on what a lot of us have been saying over the years. He says its going to be a series. I like that throughout the book he challenges people to create indigenous governmental structures/organizations in real life. Whereas in Blueprint for Black Power and The Destruction of Black Civilization people forget that there is even governmental organizational structures laid oout in those books. I feel like that this book is so to the point and it points out indigenous cultures already have forms of maat, so there’s no excuse. Black People will have to ignore the book altogether or take the words and apply it themselves. Its not going to become a trophy or mantlepiece.
The full title is Maatism: An Indigenous African Revolutionary Ideology.-
Thanks for sharing
