Publisher's Synopsis
I studied at the Los Angeles University of Hard Knocks for almost a lifetime. The courses heaped upon me there forced me to finally accept the truth about the nature of my own African-American leadership; political, social, and religious despite my great unwillingness to do so and the facts. It may be the reason many black people remain poised to cry racism at every turn. I come from both a unique and odd experience. Yet I have no criminal record which is a rarity when it comes to black men although I've been jailed many times. Our almost entirely Democratic Party affiliated African-American leadership has attempted to resolve all of our problems through the welfare system for the past half-century. Its consequence has been the total annihilation of the African-American family. This practice by my own leadership consequently even gave birth to the Los Angeles gangs known as the Crips and the Bloods the byproducts of broken black female led homes. The African-American so called educated middle-class has failed to pull its weight for it allowed this leadership to continue to exist unchecked making me wonder if they are functionally illiterate. Is not the purpose of education still to build your community? For the black middle-class education serves them to flee the Black community believing somehow they can solve the problems of everyone else rather than to take notice of those facing their own kind.That's why I have published "The Black Problem in America - And It Ain't Racism nor The Cops" for Americans were angered enough by their Washington based politicians on both sides of the isle where our former President Barrack Hussein Obama sat center stage to send Donald Trump to the Oval Office. The world has now gotten a glimpse of our previous African-American President and the same unmerited black middle-class arrogance about self that we within the inner-city have existed beneath for half a century. You just can't reach them up there in the ivory towers of government or their various offices where they have caused the total breakdown of law on the civil side of the system within the Black inner-city then retire to the white suburbs where they live at the end of the day. There are African-Americans within the inner-city who have asked themselves how on earth is it that we have fared so miserably beneath our own kind? My books answer that question. At the age of 64 years old I am a first time fairly recent newlywed to Estella Louise Lofton and we finally jumped aboard the flee California bandwagon as multitudes of other folk are doing for the inner-city of Los Angeles and the State of California are to me a lost cause.
