About the Book

The purpose of this book is to dispel any misconception that the Bible condones racism, to better enlighten the public about the seriousness of institutional racism that exists in America against minorities today, to encourage more minorities to speak out against racism when the opportunity arises within their circles, and to redirect, as many as possible, those who misuse the Bible as a weapon to justify racial hatred. An exhaustive history on racial discrimination in America is included.
