Before The Mayflower Lerone Bennett Jr. 1969 Penguin Books African Civilizations This revised edition surveys Black history from ancient African civilizations and the early Atlantic world to the arrival and survival of Africans in colonial North America. Bennett presents Black history as central to the making of America, tracing how slavery, labor, law, resistance, and community formation shaped the country long before the usual Mayflower-centered national story begins. The later chapters move through abolition, the Civil War, Reconstruction, Jim Crow, and the early civil-rights era, combining broad chronology with portraits of major figures, movements, and turning points. Written for general readers but grounded in research, the book aims to challenge inherited myths and restore Black agency, achievement, and political struggle to the center of the American narrative.
