Welcome to African History first Semester. In this class, we explore Africa like no other. Africa's history has been told by others through a lens that has not been flattering. This class is different. Our students will experience the true essence of Africa through storytelling, cultures, songs, food, history, and geography told through an African Lens. This is the Africa that you do not see on Mainstream Media or hear about. We will discover Deserts, Mountains, Lakes, Rivers, Rift Valley, Beaches, Savanna and more. Learn who are Africans, migration to different parts of the Continent, trade within and outside of Africa, Natural Resources, Tourism, Agriculture, and much more. We will explore Ancient African Kingdoms and Empires, and how they traded with Arabia, Oman, Persia, India, and as far as Tang and Song Dynasties in China, Indonesia, and beyond. North Africa has a unique and fascinating History. Before Arabization and the Introduction of Islam, the Amazigh People flourished in Numidia and Mauritania. They had a rich culture and History that was disrupted by Phoenicians, Romans, Vandals, and Seafaring people, and later Arabs and Europeans. The introduction of Camels as a beast of burden and later Islam changed the face of North Africa, West Africa, and even East Africa. Students will learn about Africa before the Scramble and Partitioning from an African perspective. By the end of the first semester, our students will have a better understanding and appreciation of Africa Explore Africa 1 Week 1: Explore Africa Week 2: Explore Africa - East Week 3: Explore Africa - North Week 4: Explore Africa - West Week 5: Explore Africa - Central Week 6: Explore Africa - Southern Explore Africa 2: Who are Africans?
