Seeing the Face of God

I give praise and glory to God for compelling me to write this book. In it I bare my soul to reveal how racial hatred is actually hatred of God and how this hatred has permeated every aspect of my life. Yes slavery was outlawed but the white supremacy that fueled the system continues to fuel racial hatred and discrimination. My experiences as a light-skinned African American woman in the 21st century United States of America can only be described as life on the new plantation. Racism is an evil system that white and African Americans must confront and overcome. Love conquers hate, more specifically, the love lived and preached by Jesus Christ: “I give you a new commandment: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you also should love one another. This is how all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another.” John 13:34-36. Prayer is a powerful weapon that we have to overcome hate. We must, individually and collectively, never cease raising our hands to heaven beseeching God to change human hearts from hate to love. Only then will liberty, equality and justice flow over our nation from coast to coast. Not with man-made laws, not with armies, not with worldly might, only with God is this possible.
