Black Men Be Truthful to Yourselves and Arise 
Arise

This book was written with the hope of showing people that its never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. We can make the best or the worst of it. My wish is that you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle your mind on your journey to the land of I create my own opportunities type of people.

We cant be afraid of change, we must feel very confident in the pond that you are in, but if you never venture out of it, you will never know that there is such a thing as an ocean, a sea. Holding onto something that is good for you now, may be the very reason why we dont have something better.

O autorze

I have a great personality. I am serious, sharp thinker, witty and gifted in conceptualizing new ideas. Despite a dour look most times, I have a great sense of humor and is widely known for my exceptional deeds of kindness and rendering of practical assistance to the poor and needy.
