First: Stolen Legacy by George G.M.James
Second: Nigger: An Autobiography by Dick Gregory
About
Stolen Legacy: Challenging the notion that civilization started in Greece, this uncompromising classic attempts to prove that the true authors of Greek philosophy were not Greeks but Egyptians. The text asserts that the praise and honor blindly given to the Greeks for centuries rightfully belong to the people of Africa, and argues that the theft of this great African legacy led to the erroneous world opinion that the African continent has made no contribution to civilization.
Nigger: An Autobiography:
“Powerful and ugly and beautiful…a moving story of a man who deeply wants a world without malice and hate and is doing something about it.” – The New York Times

Second: Propaganda: The Public Mind in the Making by Edward L. Bernays
About
The Destruction of Black Civilization: Chancellor Williams' sixteen years of research and field study compiled into one book. The book, which was to serves as a reinterpretation of the history of
the African race was intended to be “a general rebellion against the subtle message from even the most ‘liberal’ white authors (and their Negro disciples): ‘You belong to a race of nobodies.
You have no worthwhile history to point to with pride.’”Propaganda: “The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and oponions of the masses
is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of
society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country.” - Edward L. Bernays
