Broyles’ most interesting chapters relates the theories and cultural beliefs that Beethoven was black. Broyles goes to great length to demonstrate that “Beethoven seems to have been an important symbol to the black community”

Reminds me of the Professor who claimed that all Shakespeare's plays were written by Queen Elizabeth. When a sexist colleague objected, saying those great plays couldn't have been written by a mere woman, the Professor calmly replied "If you had read the second part of my book you would have found out that it is also my contention that Queen Elizabeth was a man."
