Om forfatteren

John G. Jackson (1907–1993) was an influential Pan-Africanist historian, writer, and lecturer. Born in South Carolina, he moved to Harlem at age 15, where he developed a deep interest in African history. Jackson became associated with prominent figures of the Harlem Renaissance and Pan-African movements, including Marcus Garvey and John Henrik Clarke.

He is widely known for his groundbreaking work, Introduction to African Civilizations, which challenges Eurocentric views of history and highlights the significant achievements of African cultures from ancient times to the modern era. Jackson’s work aimed to provide an Afrocentric perspective, emphasizing Africa’s contributions to global civilization and its place as the birthplace of humanity. He was also a noted atheist and authored books that explored the African origins of Christianity.
