More DescriptionSometimes what we think about black people is based on the narratives seen through our vision. To actually know what has caused the issues and misfortunes of American Black people is to look in U.S. History. This book invites the reader into the lives of a black person in America, throughout history, to demonstrate how the barriers were set up against them. The true treatment of Black people in the United Staes has been covered by the mass media portrayals we see on the screens we view daily. To recognize and see that someone will do more time for killing a dog than a black man or woman. That driving while black is not just somethings comedians joke about, but it is really TRUE! It also attempts to provide healing and understanding of the pain, as well as resilience for those of this rejected category of humans known as "Black People".
