Before Color Prejudice: The Ancient View of Blacks
Snowden, Frank M., Jr.
In this account of black–white contacts from the Pharaohs to the Caesars, Snowden shows that the ancients did not discriminate against blacks because of their color. He sheds light on the reasons for the absence in antiquity of virulent color prejudice and for the difference in attitudes of whites toward blacks in ancient and modern societies.
