All the while, the investigation continues, and the disturbing, convoluted, and complicated web surrounding the threats begins to unravel, placing the characters’ lives in grave danger.</p><p><i>Intersection</i> is a taut political thriller that combines the action and suspense found in hit television shows like <i>24</i> with the insight and drama found in the widely popular fiction of LGBT authors such as R.

Story Behind The Book

It is time for Black people to question and even challenge traditional orthodox Christianity's teachings, history and beliefs based on the historical facts and evidence because Euro-Christianiy has proven to be based on some truth some falsehoods and many misrepresentations. It is time for a true Black Liberation Theology.

Our minds are being dominated mostly by these theories and ideas. It is an adaptation that leaves us without an identity and foundation which causes us as an ethnic group to hate ourselves. Our black minds are dominated mostly by European theories and ideas. Brother Adisa not only addresses this adaptation and domination he also provides a means for ‘self liberation’ that can free us from the mental bondage that belief in false Christian Doctrines creates.” –Rashad aka The ROCK, Detroit Mi.</span><br /><br />Adisa </p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:10pt;color:#000080;font-family:Arial;">First off your book is great; I am in total agreement with your premise as you can see from my motto.
