Review: Outstanding Wisdom - Outstanding enlightenment! I came upon this writing when I was researching the Tuskegee Airmen for my curriculum development(commemorationsedudiningcomplex.com.) I was exploring the role of the airmen in their bomber escorting raids in Europe during W.W. II. The journey led to the oldest Christian Church (which I knew about since my youth) and on to Djibouti. I could not find the literature I knew to be true of the importance of biblical Djibouti - but Spirit has a way of actualizing one's passions to resolve 'truth seeking'. This book is helping me to better understand and connect the role of Emperor H. Selassie and Ethiopia with regards to the slavery that existed in Ethiopia; the failure of the League of nations to listen to Ethiopia,the seemingly reluctance of African American support for Ethiopia during the 1936 Ethiopian War with Italy and the prophetic warning (Daniel) of the scriptures as to the fate of America and Europe in not protecting the true 'essence' of the cradle of the "Christian" experience. YOU MUST READ THIS BOOK!!!! and TELL OUR CHILDREN THE TRUTH. Ms. Glenna Calvin. 5 STAR RATING.
Review: Great book about one of the most significant but unknown African Americans of the early 20th Century - Great book about one of the most significant, least appreciated African Americans of the 20th century. Per the title, as one of the very first African-American aviators, Colonel Robinson laid the foundation for what became the Tuskegee Airmen, and led the valiant fight of the Ethiopians under Haile Selassie to delay the invasion of the Italians in the mid-1930s. As a native of his hometown, I recently traveled to Ethiopia (on Ethiopian Airlines, which he founded) to participate in a commemoration of his life. It was truly heartwarming to see the high esteem in which Colonel Robinson is still held by the Ethiopian people 64 years after his death. Between this book and "The Man Called Brown Condor" by Thomas Simmons, John C. Robinson's story is a tribute to the power of vision and resilience to excel against insurmountable odds. Highly recommend both books for slightly different perspectives on an inspiring life.
