The Jewish Onslaught

Book •
"The Jewish Onslaught" by Mary Lefkowitz is a critical examination of the appropriation of classical Greek civilization by Afrocentrist scholars.

Lefkowitz challenges claims that ancient Greece was fundamentally influenced by African culture, particularly Egypt.

She argues that these claims lack historical and archaeological evidence, and often serve a political agenda.

The book defends the integrity of classical studies, emphasizing the importance of rigorous historical analysis.

Lefkowitz accuses some Afrocentrists of distorting historical facts to promote a particular narrative of racial identity.

She contends that such distortions undermine the pursuit of truth and accurate historical understanding.

"The Jewish Onslaught" ignited significant controversy and sparked debate about the role of cultural identity in historical interpretation.
