All Roads Lead to Rome - Michael J. Henderson

All Roads Lead to Rome explores the deep-rooted history of white supremacy and human enslavement, tracing its foundations back to ancient empires. In this comprehensive analysis, Michael J. Henderson delves into the evolution of racial capitalism, the enduring legacy of Roman imperialism, and how these systems of control persist in modern society.

Henderson uncovers the ideological roots of racial hierarchies, revealing how empires, particularly Rome, shaped the structures of domination that continue to affect global systems today. Through the study of ancient civilizations, European colonization, and American expansion, the book examines the continuous thread of exploitation, dispossession, and legal manipulation that created and maintained systems of racial inequality.

By examining the legal, economic, and social frameworks of empire from ancient Egypt’s intellectual dominance to modern America’s complex racial structures, All Roads Lead to Rome challenges readers to confront the uncomfortable truths about the origins and persistence of global inequality. It provides a compelling narrative that shows how history, memory, and power intersect to shape the modern world.
