"The disks -- crammed with 2.5 million words and more than 2,500 pictures, maps, graphs, sounds and video clips on practically all things of African descent -- reverberate with their subject. A mouse click can send users, even those with modestly powered personal computers, on a cinematic voyage along the Swahili coast, or permit them to retrace centuries of slave routes between the "dark continenet" and the New World, or simply watch, in stunningly stark video clips, haunting scenes of civil rights marchers being attacked with fire hoses and police dogs.
