Publisher's Synopsis
For too long, the system of racism and white supremacy has worked to oppress, exploit, and devalue foundational Black Americans, but the time for standing down is over. Strength, unity, and codification are the keys to survival and success. When we move as one, we create a shield that no system can break. This book is more than just words-it's a call to action, a wake-up call, and a blueprint for empowerment. It challenges the forces working against us and encourages Black men and women to stay strong, think strategically, and protect one another at all costs.
D. Morrow Jr. knows this struggle. He was raised on the Southside of Chicago, he grew up without a father figure and found one in the streets. At just ten years old, he was drawn into a gang, searching for guidance and belonging. He spent years moving between homes and juvenile detention centers, never fully understanding why his life was unfolding the way it was, but with time came clarity-every hardship, every setback, and every challenge was preparing him for something greater. Today, he stands as a testament to strength, proving that the past does not define a person; it shapes them.
Through honesty and deep passion, D. Morrow Jr. shares his journey and his vision for a future where his people rise above oppression. This book is for those who refuse to be broken, for those ready to claim their power, and for those committed to building something greater for the next generation. If you're ready to take control of your destiny and break free from the chains of the system, this book is for you.
