BlackPast.org. This 13,000 page reference center is dedicated to providing information to the general public on African American history and on the history of the more than one billion people of African ancestry around the world.
The website is divided into three main areas: African American History (AAH), African American History in the West
(AAW), and Global African History (GAH). Under each of those headings you will find a vast array of resources. Under African American History for example we invite you to view our encyclopedia entries, full text primary documents, and major speeches of black activists and leaders from the 18th Century to the present as well as other public figures who debated the question of African American liberty. There are also historical timelines, a list of major newspapers, magazines, and journals, and research guides and websites.
Our Perspectives section features articles written by people who witnessed important events in African American or Global African history or by experts in a particular area of those fields who write about their work. BlackPast.org has nine bibliographies that list over 5,000 books. Click here for the bibliographies. See also our genealogy, digital archives, and multimedia pages.
