Lefkowitz, Mary – Society, 1994
Examines the methods James uses to establish the misleading thesis that African peoples made the original discoveries that led to the development of what has been thought of as Western thought. Hypothesis is treated as virtual fact, and history is misrepresented. "Stolen Legacy" is not a serious work of scholarship. (SLD)

Winters, Clyde Ahmad – Journal of Black Studies, 1994
States that the Afrocentric method is based on fact, not fiction, and addresses criticisms leveled at Afrocentric theory. It examines the sources of Afrocentrism, discusses the presence of blacks and the black influence in Greece, and argues that the ancient Egyptians were black. (GLR)
