Cognitive Dissonance

Yazid is a seemingly blessed young African-American boy. He got a scholarship to one of his top universities, has a supportive family, and is doing well in college. However, issues start once Yazid gains powers seemingly out of nowhere, abilities that make him nigh-invincible. And it is after this mysterious occurrence that Yazid sees how little the world can approve. Approve of his beliefs, his girlfriend, his use of his powers, even who he is as a fundamental person. Yazid finds himself thrust into a world where he constantly meets the worst of the worst, and the most unfortunate bit, it's all his fault. Yazid must now deal with the mental struggles threatening to tear him and his spirit apart, while also fighting against the struggles outside his person, threatening destruction to those he cares most for.
