Martin Luther King, Jr. had a dream...I lived a nightmare. Colored people are no longer hung by trees, or lynched, as my title suggests. However, in the 21st century, despite the wonderful work done by great people such as Thurgood Marshall, Martin Luther King, Jr. and President Barack Obama, racism STILL exists. I am 23 years old and I have a story to tell. It is a story of corruption, love and loss, and the struggles of daily life as a result. I served time in the military only to be disgusted by the atrocities being committed and one day such atrocities were committed against me. However, this is not the first time it happened in my life and so I was equipped to deal with the situation. Others may not be so well equipped. I am telling my story and maybe the story of others who are not so fortunate to have the luxury of writing to you today. This book delivers a powerful message.
