The book is dedicated to the millions of Black and poor people struggling to escape poverty. It is the goal of this book to give direction and guidance out of poverty and suffering and into hope and prosperity. The purposes of this book is to show how Black people or anyone who is poor can escape poverty and achieve prosperity by building businesses, improving education, eating healthy, planning families, looking and acting professional, voting and avoiding vices such as, alcohol, drugs and tobacco products. This book is different from other books on Black poverty because it asks for no government or corporate help. The book emphasizes the need for Blacks to embrace the concept of self-determination and by pooling resources, build their way out of poverty. I plan to use this book as a platform to not only talk about what needs to be done but to work in the Black communities to ensure that Blacks accomplish what needs to be done. This book will show how Blacks and the poor can move out of poverty. This will be accomplished by identifying a series of steps that each individual can take on their own and collectively with others.
