Rogers' work was concerned with "the Great Black Man" theory of history. This theory presented history, specifically black history, as a mural of achievements by prominent black people. Rogers devoted a significant amount of his professional life to unearthing facts about people of African ancestry. He intended these findings to be a refutation of contemporary racist beliefs about the inferiority of blacks. Books such as "100 Amazing Facts about the Negro, " "Sex and Race, " and "World's Great Men of Color, " all described remarkable black people throughout the ages and cited significant achievements of black people. Rogers' first book, "From "Superman" to Man, " self-published in 1917
