Book Presale

It never ceases to amaze me how a certain group of white folks convinced the rest of them that we got them broke—when really, it’s they who’ve been robbing them blind the whole time.

The lie was crafted masterfully. They pointed to immigrants, to Black families, to “lazy people on welfare,” and said, “That’s who’s draining your paycheck.” Meanwhile, CEOs were moving factories overseas, banks were creating subprime loans, and billionaires were cashing tax breaks off the backs of everyday people—white, Black, and otherwise.

And what did they do next?
They gave you a villain you could see—somebody brown, somebody poor—so you wouldn’t look up and see the actual thief in the room.

It’s a distraction tactic. A bait-and-switch. A spiritual Ponzi scheme.

So now we’ve got working-class white folks voting against their own healthcare, pensions, and schools just to keep Black folks from getting a so-called “handout.”
Dead men walking—loyal to a system that’s already emptied their pockets and convinced them to smile while it’s happening.

And you know what’s worse?
That same system taught Black folks to believe we’re the problem too. That we’re a burden. That we’re behind because we’re lazy—not because the entire game was rigged before we were even allowed to sit at the table.

That’s the sickness: they convinced us to hate us, too.

So now we’re all exhausted, underpaid, misinformed, and too divided to realize we’ve been eating crumbs from a table we built.

But here’s the thing: once you see the con, you can’t unsee it.
Now the question is: are you going to keep walking dead—or are you ready to wake up and start moving differently?

Don’t offer yourself at a discount and then get upset when they treat you like clearance. You set the price—and the standard. Always have.

It was a woman who led Adam to step out of line with God. That’s not about blame—that’s about influence. Power.

And if you need a science lesson: when it’s time to make a baby, it isn’t the sperm that decides—it’s the egg. The egg selects who gets in and who gets eliminated. One is welcomed. The rest are dismissed—decapitated, to be exact.

So if creation itself is waiting on you to choose wisely… why are you allowing people to treat you like you should be grateful to be chosen?

A healthy-minded woman carries an innate power—gifted by both God and nature—to build spiritual alignment, financial stability, and legacy-level relationships. The facts back it up:
Black women in healthy, stable partnerships are 40% more likely to experience financial growth and emotional well-being—and report significantly lower stress-related health issues like high blood pressure, anxiety, and depression.

So stop waiting for validation. You are the foundation, the filter, and the future. Start acting like it.

When self-hate sits in your bones, love can’t get in. How are you supposed to marry when your taught to view it as a trap?

Too many Black men hide behind excuses:
“I never saw a good marriage.” But you never said, “Let me be the one to show what it could look like.”
You’ve had bad sex and still went back for more—but won’t give love a real shot? Make it make sense.

“It’s just a piece of paper.” So is a loan. So is a lease. So is a cell phone contract. Y’all sign those with no hesitation—but marriage suddenly feels too deep?

“Marriage doesn’t benefit men.” You work jobs that don’t pay you your worth, fight systems built against you, and still show up. But building wealth, structure, and legacy with someone who actually has your back? That’s where you draw the line?

Meanwhile, white, Hispanic, and Asian men are building legacies through the very thing too many Black men reject.

And let’s be honest—some of our elders are still out here in their 60s and 70s, chasing girls young enough to be their granddaughters, while the wealth they should’ve been passing down walks right out of the community.

And to the women—some of y’all have mistaken “wifey” for wife. Ever since Method Man made it sound sweet, too many started settling for the title instead of the commitment. Being kept around is not the same as being chosen.

We don’t just need more weddings.
We need to heal the belief that we don’t deserve a covenant love that’s public, protected, and permanent.

If you’re not picking up the trash, checking on the elders, or showing up at the PTA—why should anybody else care about your neighborhood more than you?

And let’s talk about voting. Some of y’all been convinced your vote doesn’t count. That’s not by accident—that’s by design.

See, they can’t outright steal your money unless they get into a position to do it legally. And to do that? They need you to stay home.
And many of the folks at the bottom of the economic ladder—the ones who would benefit the most from policy change—are the ones who don’t show up to the polls.

In 2020, only 58% of Black eligible voters with household incomes under $30,000 turned out to vote—compared to 74% of white voters earning over $75,000.
And that gap? It’s exactly what they’re counting on.

Most of the white folks in politics ain’t there because they love public service. Half of them never had a real job until they got elected. They’re not there to work hard—they’re there to control resources. Theirs and yours.

Now ask yourself: who do you really think they’re going to look out for?

You mad that the government doesn’t care? But if you are not even in the room to know what’s on the menu, how can you control how and what you eat?
