Summary: Crackpot ravings
Comment: Before anyone says how good this book is, take time to actually read it elsewhere on the web. Basically, it is the ravings of another self-proclaimed prophet named Athlyi (middle name of the author) who goes on and on about how God supposedly appointed him to start this thing called the Athlyican Church beased on what would now be called Afrocentric teachings. He claims that he appointed Garvey as an apostle, but Garvey himself openly denounced such would-be afrocentric messiahs in 1927, 1934, and 1936 (see the volumes of the Marcus Garvey papers for these years). Almost every other sentance (like the comparative "Book of Mormon") begins with "And it came to pass..." Pretty tiresome stuff after awhile.
One can understand the need for the more downtrodden people of the African diaspora for these kinds of teachings for a badly needed improvement of self-esteem. But the fact is that there is enough REAL and verifiable Black history out there (along with the actual writings of Marcus Garvey) that things like this are really not necessary. Interesting only for historical and sociological reasons.
