Black History Should Be Taught 365 Days a Year

This powerful manifesto argues that Black history is foundational to human civilization, not merely a footnote to be confined to a single month. Jasper Cephus presents a compelling case that the true depth and breadth of Black historical contributions have been systematically obscured through the destruction of artifacts and media manipulation. He asserts that this history is a vital branch of knowledge that has profoundly shaped global religious and spiritual life, positioning it as essential, year-round curriculum.

The book's urgency stems from its core argument that widespread ignorance of this rich history is not accidental but intentional. Cephus moves beyond a simple call for inclusion to expose the mechanisms of historical erasure, making a case for why this knowledge is a necessary corrective for a distorted world view. Readers seeking to understand the deliberate gaps in mainstream historical narratives will find this a provocative and essential read that reframes Black history as a continuous, living legacy.
