The six-part BET mini-series follows the life of Aminata Diallo, a young African girl kidnapped by slave traders and brought across the Atlantic to North America. In the course of her long and hard life, Aminata is a witness to major events in the slave trade and the history of Black North Americans. Over seven chapters, the app provides a timeline of Black history from 1705 to the present day. In addition, it explores the historical grounding of both the novel and series in the original Book of Negroes historical document, which identified Black slaves who fought for the British during the American Revolution. Using images, videos, and interactive maps, the guide follows the far-reaching impact of the trans-Atlantic slave trade. For educational settings, the guide features optional discussion questions and further investigation of the various topics. An intuitive interface allows users to swipe, tap, and scroll through chapters to engage with interactive features in a linear or nonlinear fashion, and gain a deeper understanding of the historical events portrayed in The Book of Negroes. ## The Book of Negroes Historical Guide Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple5/v4/72/b5/1f/72b51fda-ebca-0fb7-277c-9bb7f81f71b3/pr_source.jpg/960x640.png) - [Screenshot 2](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple3/v4/80/5b/df/805bdf44-4607-d5a9-7f90-ef806776ee92/pr_source.jpg/960x640.png) - [Screenshot 3](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple1/v4/84/c7/db/84c7db4e-262d-28b8-3dbe-bb5680f3a140/pr_source.jpg/960x640.png) - [Screenshot 4](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple5/v4/e5/8b/44/e58b44b4-807c-2ac2-e271-15037f19afc4/pr_source.jpg/960x640.png) - [Screenshot 5](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple5/v4/56/91/e2/5691e2d9-943b-dd10-1ba3-208eb0cbbdff/pr_source.jpg/960x640.png) ## The Book of Negroes Historical Guide Rating Breakdown in Соединенные Штаты - 5 stars: 27 (73%) - 4 stars: 3 (8%) - 3 stars: 1 (3%) - 2 stars: 2 (5%) - 1 stars: 4 (11%) ## The Book of Negroes Historical Guide Reviews in Соединенные Штаты ### *---- "Yahweh" I must say I saw a review of this app and one brother put it so beautifully it brought tears to my eyes.Some folks are truly not seekers of the most high and are simply trained and willing to continue a lie until it becomes truth.lots of blacks are not aware that a majority of us are Hebrews and the original Hebrews way before the Arab conquest and our history doesn’t begin in the 16 th century when Europeans started recording their so called time.Time will tell and logic will tell you simply can’t continue going against the natural order and expect good to come back forever.Judgement cometh.Chickens are Coming home -- Sonsofkings, 2019-01-21 ### *---- "Absolutely Trash" We all know this was not written by a black person. -- palenplump, 2018-11-27 ### ***** "Great Series ✨" 1986 Zulu remake in the mix @BETNetworks ? -- Tranquilroc, 2016-06-08 ### ***** "Thank you BET" I just love how it tells you about and what black people have to go through back then. -- Rasta-lion-09, 2015-08-06 ### ****- "The Book of Negroes - thank you BET!" I had an opportunity to finally view the miniseries and was completely enamored with the this story of survival and love. I want to thank BET for bringing this story to life. There are so many stories of Black people forced into slavery who fought back and survived. Unfortunately, these stories are not readily available nor taught I our schools -- Laveece, 2015-04-06 ### ***** "BON" I simply love this app. It helped me to gain even more knowledge of slavery. Being African American it's hard to find app like these ️an this one does a great job. -- Bettybopz, 2015-04-04 ### *---- "Whitewashed version of events" Nice app. Nice movie. But like most things of this nature, it totally glosses over and whitewashes things that happened in the slave trade and cuts straight to the things we already know. The movie and the app is pretty much preaching to the choir. If you're carrying a grudge or have a chip on your shoulder, this app is for you. If you're looking to learn the history behind this atrocity, look elsewhere. -- Lungho69, 2015-02-26 ### *---- "GreatPromo advert but LackingContent..." This is a well done promo for the novel and miniseries; kudos to the slick production team. However, the app chews up nearly half of a GB in data memory and offers very little of substance (for anyone either above primary school or beyond a level of bigoted willful ignorance) but of course it's free and you get what you pay for. I think reviewer "Mke9634" said it best in his Feb 23, 2015 review: "5th grade level propaganda..." And that's sad - this could have been so much more than it was. -- sjm49, 2015-02-26 ### ***** "LOVE!! 😍" I RECOMMEND this lovely app of huge information. Easier to watch videos and read to learn history! -- 12purple12, 2015-02-26 ### ***** "Wow" It's just....wow -- Fang512, 2015-02-25 ### *---- "Not diversified" Black history is racist, ignoring others. -- Net Neddlelender, 2015-02-25 ### ***-- "BET A BLACK HISTORY" IT AMAZES ME THAT I AM ALIVE DUE TO A BLACK MAN DONATING HIS BLOOD IN VIETNAM NAM SO I LIVED HE DIED TWO TOURS LATER SO I SUPPORT HIS FAMILY IN ANY MANNER I CAN AS I ALSO HAVE A FAMILY MINE CAN TRACE ITS ROOTS HIS C OULD NOT DUE TO THE SLAVE trade and actual breeding farms which really put white America in league with the nazis of wwii -- Spookiest 99, 2015-02-25 ### ***** "Beautiful App" I already knew a lot of this part of history, but it was fun to read it again with the visuals. I've gone through the entire thing, but I'll be keeping it on my phone. Would love to see more like this! -- Hny_b, 2015-02-24 ### ***** "Yup" Of course an app like this would incite all the faceless racists to get all worked up -- Sam00000000001, 2015-02-24 ### ***** "The missing part" This is so important for everyone to know about. The missing part in all the government, history etc. books. Can recommend it! -- Satigh, 2015-02-24 ### ***** "Nice" Wow only four days left until February is over where was this app on the first. Good job Apple -- Ahmadpastry, 2015-02-24 ### ***** "so awesomeee" cant stop reading make one of piracy please!!! -- Raziel soulreaver, 2015-02-24 ### ***** "In islam" No colors No race No different No slaves No calling names based on ur region Peace to all -- Shattered rose, 2015-02-24 ### *---- "5th grade level propaganda in 10 minutes; not a complete history" This hits on all of the major bullet points of the Atlantic Slave trade and the history of Blacks in America and Canada. Slavery to Civil War to Harlem Renaissance to Blacks in sports to Civil Rights Act to Obama. That's it. I didn't skip anything. The rest is promotional info for the actual book. No info on slaves traded to asia and in africa, nor info on who captured the slaves (here's a hint: cure for malaria wasn't invented yet.) Nothing on the significant efforts of William Wilberforce to end slavery: 'A system of slavery that has existed for millennia is ended by a passage of a law, a law that was voted down 11 times in 15 years when it finally passed 204-5.' Think that could be expanded on, why a law suddenly becomes nearly universally approved? No mention of the massive effort of the British Navy to end the slave trade and the thousands of lives lost at sea to save Black lives? There is a few mentions that both Washington and Jefferson owned slaves. No mention that the slaves were freed and provided for in both men's wills, nor the personal letters of both men anguishing over the moral issue of slave holding against the reality that these people where unable to function in society as they were uneducated and the social conditions would make it very difficult to succeed. And the general assumption is that slavery is all whipping and beating and raping of the blacks, when in fact many slaves once freed took the name of their slave holders and many whites provided for black families assistance. In short, this is more a list of grievances meant to divide people than educate. The real story of Blacks is something we should be as a nation should be in the end proud of: under the lead of Britain, a millennia long system that degraded humans was ended not only in our countries but then we forced the rest of the world to by and large do the same. Black people have a better shot in this country and the West than anywhere else in the world. They deserve the truth. -- Mke9634, 2015-02-24 ### ***** "Great app" A must have app on your iPad and iPhone... Nothing is better than picking up a book and reading but as a quick way to learn history ... This is a must have -- matrixmind, 2015-02-24 [View all The Book of Negroes Historical Guide reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/ru/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## The Book of Negroes Historical Guide Discovered Keywords - black history - bet networks ## Apps Similar to The Book of Negroes Historical Guide - [BLK PRIME](https://apptail.io/ru/app/blk-prime-bap/united-states) - [Black Cinema Plus](https://apptail.io/ru/app/black-cinema-plus-brqb/united-states) - [Africa Prime](https://apptail.io/ru/app/africa-prime-wnFb/united-states) - [Brown Sugar - Badass Cinema](https://apptail.io/ru/app/brown-sugar-badass-cinema-zHJb/united-states) - [kweliTV: Binge On The Culture](https://apptail.io/ru/app/kwelitv-binge-on-the-culture-pNWc/united-states) - [ABFF Play](https://apptail.io/ru/app/abff-play-Tfwd/united-states) - [Larry Reid Live](https://apptail.io/ru/app/larry-reid-live-fEuf/united-states) - [CleoTV](https://apptail.io/ru/app/cleotv-lMBj/united-states) - [The DL Hughley Show](https://apptail.io/ru/app/the-dl-hughley-show-AFCj/united-states) - [Bounce TV](https://apptail.io/ru/app/bounce-tv-Pswk/united-states) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io/ru) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
