Each truth you learn will be, for you, as new as if it had never been written. Ancient African Proverbs

In this lecture from 2019, The black history man himself, ROBIN WALKER, breaks down the importance of the Book of the Dead and looks to decipher its true meaning.

Robin Walker, ‘The Black History Man,’ was born in London but has also lived in Jamaica. He is a publisher, educator, and author.

From 1987 to 1990, he read Economics at the London School of Economics. In 1991 and 1992, he studied African World Studies with the brilliant Dr. Femi Biko and later with Mr. Kenny Bakie. Between 1993 and 1994, he trained as a secondary school teacher at Edge Hill College (linked to the University of Lancaster).

In 2006, Walker wrote the seminal When We Ruled. It is the most advanced synthesis of Ancient and Mediaeval African history ever written by a single author. In 2011, Black Classic Press of Baltimore published a US version of this book.

Between 2013 and 2019, Walker followed this with When We Ruled: Second Edition, When We Ruled Study Guide and Reading Plan, Blacks and Science Volumes I, II and III, Blacks and Religion Volumes I and II, The Rise and Fall of Black Wall Street and the Seven Key Empowerment Lessons, The Black Musical Tradition and Early Black Literature, 19 Lessons in Black History and Black History Matters.
