Publisher's Synopsis
Thank you for supporting our black owned business, Books of Color, LLC! Your purchase directly impacts not only our black community, but minority youths everywhere by being the seed of thought that'll help blossom your child into a morally strong adult. To be honest, children's books written by Doctors (Dr. S.) need some updating. We live in a "direct to consumer" economic system at the time this book was written, therefore author Jowan D. McKoy has the freedom to control exactly what text he choses to write on the back of this book! See, you're talking to me now, Hey world! Now that the gig is up, parents we NEED to talk. This is the part where you have to take my words and look up their origins because not only is this my opinion, but the truth in essence. I want to be clear, this book is solely directed towards the minority communities in America. This book stems from creative thoughts rooted in Hip Hop which derives from circumstances created by the Nixon Administration & provoked by Ronald Regan's administration in their quote, unquote, efforts to maintain a "War On Drugs" policy. That policy impacted our culture more than anything else in our recent history & was the catalyst for the climate we continue to boil in America's pot, which taste like racism. Racism evolved into classism because of capitalism which was all a strategic plan. I understand there's never been words like "racism" and "classism" on the back of a children book, but this is our truth & our truth has been hidden long enough. Please understand my vision isn't to make money from the innocence of our children, if it was I would't have written all of this! My vision is to morally strengthen & truly prepare our children for the world we ACTUALLY live in. I never grew up believing in "White Santa Claus" because my mother hustled all year to provide in our single parent household, and I admire it now more than ever.
