This book examines what exactly the Jim Crow laws were, why they were established and more importantly, how these outdated laws have cast a lingering effect on the black race in America as we attempt to progress in this country. I then cover a list of different topics that we, as a people, struggle with, the origins of these issues, and explore possible solutions we could implement in order to move past them. My desire is that you reflect on those areas that hit home for you in my book, hoping that a positive change can take place ultimately resulting in unity, prosperity, and growth for all African-Americans.
