Then Reconstruction, the Black Codes, Jim Crow laws, the Black Freedom Movement, the 1960s up to present-day, Kamal Al Mansour, draws analogies from film and literature that concludes the African Diaspora is not only in a dystopian state but has been in such a state for nearly 500 years.

N, who is a African vampire, has been on a long search finding the White police officer who killed his family and cut off half of his tongue when he was young. He believes that the cop is in Virginia; he goes on a grueling battle to find him. But he also ends up falling in love, meet other unique black vampires like him, find his true origin, and leads a revolution to end police brutality and racism. Black lives, Sierra Leonean lives, Nigerian lives, Lagos lives, Ghanaian lives, Egyptian lives, or any African lives will always matter!

Tevun-Krus #119 - AfroFuturism 2
**February 4th, 2024 Tevun-Krus #119 - AfroFuturism 2** We first tackled AfroFuturism in 2020 for TK76. Now we're taking on the subgenre once again! AfroFuturism combines traditional African art, architecture, cultures and values (and that of the African diaspora) with the sheer wonder that is our shared science-fiction future! In more recent years, there's been a divide between "AfroFuturism" and "AfricanFuturism"-where the former term has increasingly been applied to works about or by the African diaspora and the latter restricted to the African continent. The Ooorah Mothership has taken a stance of inclusivity, so we welcome stories from both branches of this subgenre.Complete

Vision of Love Book 2 *read book 1 before this* You're special to me. You're the only one who I wouldn't mind losing sleep for, the only one who I can never get tired of talking to, and the only one who crosses my mind constantly throughout the day. You're the only one who can make me smile without trying, bring down my mood without the intention to and affect my emotions with every action of yours. I can't explain with just words how much you mean to me, but you're the only one I'm afraid of losing and the one I want to keep in my life. You could say were love struck. feb 2021-mar 2021Complete
G.C Bounds (Generational Curses: The Seeds That Were Planted)
This book will touch on the generational curse that go on in not only African American families but also all families across the world . this is a Christian book so this amazing story God gave me will be backed up by mostly scripture. This is the first Book it will touch on briefly 5 generations and how life affected them through their previous generations mistakes. My plans for this book is to make hard copies to sell in stores this is just the first outlet I pray this book helps the lost souls or helps people realize in life why we sometimes deal with certain patterns in our life. And this I believe will help Christians realize why it's certain sins and struggles it's hard for them to immediately turn away from. God gave me revelation through this book. My goal from this book is to get people to come closer and build their relationship with God Because the End times are Here!!! Two more books on the way as all stay turned.Complete

Nelson Mandela read the manuscript more than ten years ago and wrote to me to thank me for it. He understood exactly what I was getting at. His letter is included in this book. After apartheid, after Mandela, South Africa is on a downspin. Can the Rainbow Nation be saved from selfdestruction? Yes! Here is how...Complete

Four x reader (Divergent)
{BOOK ONE} There are five factions. Each had their own reasoning for thinking why the war had happened. Dauntless; cowardice and fear. They strive to be brave, fearless. Erudite; ignorance. They strive for intellect, to be smart and curious. Candor; deception. They strive to be honest. Amity; they blamed the war itself along with fighting. They strive to be kind, forgiving, peaceful. Abnegation; selfishness. So they strive to be selfless. Dauntless are our police. Erudite are our teachers. Candor is the law. Amity are the farmers. And Abnegation are our government. I would sit on the ground everyday, wearing my yellow dress with black sandals. Wasn't the best thing for me. Dresses made my shoulders to broad, especially the flowing ones. When I was home alone, or with my mother, I would wear I tight black shirt and white shorts. No one would really approve, mostly because they were Candor colours along with the fact it's not... welcoming enough. I never understood Amity, not because of the kindness and the peacefulness; well, mostly the peacefulness. Whenever it should come down to defending ourselves or walking away. We walked away. It confused me. Maybe I wasn't Amity enough to understand. Maybe I wasn't kind enough. Maybe, just maybe, I didn't belong here. So where do I belong? A/N : First chapter is a little sketchy but that is the case with all of my books. I promise it does get a lot better afterwards Start: Feb 06 2021 End: Dec 15 2021Complete
