From Kingdom To nigger-dom: A People Lost In Translation (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780984667376)

This is a book of cultural ambivalence that has been written and compiled for the ones of us that have been lost in cultural translation, seeking an answer to how our African forefathers could have sold us into slavery. It also begs an answer to how the Europeans that initially kidnapped, stole, and forced-purchased us could have subjected us to an "institutional system of abuse" known as "nigger-dom" that was intended to last forever. This book goes into extraordinary detail demonstrating how "Race" was used as a subversive tool to separate the human collective from those that make-up mankind. A distinction is drawn between "Humanity" and "Mankind" detailing when, why, and how the separation began that brought about "global racism" on the planet. In-depth historical research, prose and poetry have been used as a means of providing a synoptic view into the occurrences that have defined our historic past. This particular material and subject matter is not for everyone and nor is it intended to be. The poetic arrangement of the various selections present a back and forth progression in "time" that reflects the mood, tone and feel that is meant to convey the ambivalence, pain, anguish and "triumphant spirit of survival" experienced by the millions of Africans and their descendants, whom were forced to endure the cruelty and evil of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. You are invited to journey back into time, through the cultural twists, turns and nuances of the "Black Experience" that are expressed in this informative, provocative, gut-wrenching publication that provides a backdrop into the triumphs and suffering of Black People that began centuries ago and continues until now.
