Just as a cherished vase may shatter if knocked to the floor, in a like manner a lie can also be shattered by the truth. Lying is comparable to a death-dealing poison. Thankfully, though, we can do something about it. We can stop the practice of lying; by telling the truth. In this book The Faces of the Hamitic People, I have presented the truth; that there is a Hamitic branch and that there was never a curse of Ham, also the Kushites were the fi rst Hamitic branch to institute kingship and political governments. No white lie originates with the truth, it has only served to plunge the Hamitic branch into misery and death; the history of the slave trade well proves this. Racial prejudice and discrimination are products of mans lies and selfish desires. It was lies that led European colonists to view the natives as nothing more than animals with the gift of speech.
This monograph is an original study of what is commonly termed the American "myth of Ham". It examines black and white Americans' recourse to the biblical character of Ham as a cultural strategy for explaining racial origins. Previous studies in the area have been restricted to associating the Hamitic idea with pro-slavery arguments, whereas the thesis of this project reveals a fundamental irony: black American Christians who reinforced the meanings of illegitimacy by appealing to Ham as the ancestor of the race.

Black Morocco: A History of Slavery, Race, and Islam chronicles the experiences, identity and achievements of enslaved black people in Morocco from the sixteenth century to the beginning of the twentieth century. Chouki El Hamel argues that we cannot rely solely on Islamic ideology as the key to explain social relations and particularly the history of black slavery in the Muslim world, for this viewpoint yields an inaccurate historical record of the people, institutions and social practices of slavery in Northwest Africa. El Hamel focuses on black Moroccans' collective experience beginning with their enslavement to serve as the loyal army of the Sultan Isma'il. By the time the Sultan died in 1727, they had become a political force, making and unmaking rulers well into the nineteenth century. The emphasis on the political history of the black army is augmented by a close examination of the continuity of black Moroccan identity through the musical and cultural practices of the Gnawa.
