    Hello everyone on here.

    I wanted to say that I wrote a book that's on sale at lulu.com that talks about my experiences from when I was young, to me moving to the Bay Area when I was 19, to all the stuff that I encountered while living in the Bay Area. A long time ago, a friend of mine on YouTube made a video review regarding my book ago. I also have an ad that tells you a little more about what's in the book. I would like to share it with everybody on here. If you like it, you can buy the book at lulu.com . I have the book both as a PDF or a Paperback.

    Since we’re all presumably Black and all deal with racism what can we gain from your book that we don’t already experience in our day to day lives?
    In my book I talk about a lot of different things that I encountered out here. I also learned how to develop strategies in order to deal with it. Back in the early 2000's I was experiencing crazy racism from these other ethnic groups. I was a young man at the time, and I didn't know how to deal with it for a while. I internalized it. I didn't expect the, so-called, liberal Bay Area to be as racist as it was. I know there's racism all over the country, and world, but this racism that I was dealing with was a different flavor than the racism in the South. I was born in the South, and had experienced racism, but that flavor of racism rolled completely off of my back. However, when I moved to Cali, that's when I experienced REAL racism. It took a while to try to figure out how to navigate in such a hateful place. I wrote down everything that I did to counter it and keep going forward without losing your manhood due to blatant bigotry and hatred coming at you from every conceivable angle. I wrote the book because I know that young black men would encounter many of the situations that I dealt with. Also, I had to also deal with California Black Women, and that wasn't easy either. They are different than the ones in the South. I would venture to say that many California black women were RACIST against black men. They were just as nasty towards you as women of other races out here. I am talking about the black women out here who are Cali Natives. I talk about that in my book also.

    Bruh this liberal racism is the worst. These jackasses pretend to be your best friend but hate everything about you. They’ll be at a BLM rally, talk about equity, but hang around and share resources with nothing but other whites. It’s so hypocritical, fake, and phony…I’m sick of it. They use us as props to look better than conservatives and that‘s it. They do not like us one bit.
