MY LATEST BOOK WAS PUBLISHED ON JUNETEENTH (19 JUNE) 2016. HERE IS THE
BACK COVER BLURB
Justice or Else at The Capstone
The United States of America was
founded on the principle that Africans are only three-fifths human and
therefore could be reduced to the status of chattel in perpetuity. The election
and reelection of a Black man to the highest office in the land utterly wiped
out the final lingering theoretical underpinnings of this principle. The
current process to elect a successor to the first Black president is laying
bare all of the bloodcurdling bigotry generated by over two centuries of white
supremacy. Not surprisingly, the undercurrent of xenophobic rage masquerades as
an attempt to find a way back to a so-called “greatness.” At this juncture of
the nation’s troubled history, there is need for the premier historically Black
college / university (HBCU) to live up to its call to provide “Leadership for
America and the Global Community.” In order to live up to the challenge, “The
Capstone of Negro Education” must fix itself. There must be “Justice or Else at
The Capstone.”
