I have written this book based on what I see, not what I believe. Some accounts of this book are true events of the treatment blacks experienced over the years during the early development of our country. Some of the events depicted detail what Blacks had to endure to survive as they found themselves enslaved in a country where they were considered to be compared to livestock. To further justify the demoralization of Blacks, they convinced themselves that Blacks were three-fifths human. The savagery of defiance, the inhumane treatment, and brutalization of Blacks were designed to create a sense of hopelessness. After finding solace in developing a spirit of uprising to gain freedom and fighting with a republic to unite a country, we have found our freedom but still did not escape the stigmatism of our beginning. Deemed as a subculture and a burden, we have found our contributions unacknowledged and eliminated from history. I wrote this book to remind us of what we have persevered through and what we’re capable of achieving, with developed sayings that we offer on shirts and novelty items as a reminder not to give up or give in to the stigmatism that surrounds us.
