MY LATEST BOOK

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.”
