    This book offers a unique perspective on the history of the African American people without being offensive to others and offers this history from the perspective of being an African American living here in the United States of America. The book was written from the perspective of its author who was born in the late '50s, experienced adolescence from the late '60s to the early '70s entered adulthood in the middle '70s, which has given the author of this book, the entire spectrum of life here in America pre-integration (segregation), as well as living in the post-integration era. The struggles of African Americans were truly real, and this book offers a concise and rather limited overview of African American history.Nevertheless, the book offers pertinent and timely information still very much needed today. Being biblically inspired as well, this book contains both scripture and scriptural commentaries. Having the influence of the author's faith intertwined, this is a no-holds-barred reading. In addition, the book contains records of the likes of historical violence-filled voter suppression and the groups who initiated such violence against the African American voter, along with the movers and shakers of political empowerment for African Americans throughout this still-young history of African American in this country.The book contains historical essays on lynching, along with the achievements of African Americans as well, and despite all the roadblocks that have been put in from of them, African American continues to thrive. Finally, the book hopes and serves to motivate African Americans and others in an attempt for those to believe in those "better days" for themselves and others as well, here living in the United States of America.
