THE BOOK IS A BOOK OF IDEAS ON HOW TO SOLVE THE PROBLEMS OF CAPITALIST SOCIETY . Each chapter is a split narrative from the point of view of the black cultural thinker and the Western cultural thinker. It aims to encourage the reader to think positively about the past and how it impacts on the future it encourages the reader to be proud of their history and learn from it because if we do not forgive the past we are the ones who will live in bondage. We need freedom of mind to think differently about the past history of slavery and to look at it with positive eyes after all if it was not for slavery we would not be here in the west. Slavery and colonisation were horrible but we need to learn the lessons of the past so this book challenges the thinking of readers about the past and looks at the future with hope for a better life for our children to soar to majestic heights. This book encourages our young people to have dreams and visions for their lives and to encourage politicians, educationalists and academics to consider some of the ideas about solving society’s problems. The book explores different ideas such as what if there was a marketplace for values with shopping malls set up to sell or trade in moral values, talent and ideas? What if there was the shopping experience transformed into a different kind of journey where people leave feeling they have purchased peace, joy and love in various forms? The fact is that many people simply spend leisure time going window shopping and the experience is almost a religious one. They want somewhere to go, somewhere to see and be seen but problems are created when mothers and their childre lack the finances to support this pastime. Some children are tempted to steal, to envy and hate others who can afford these material resources. Others simply internalise the negative and have difficulty managing such later on. Other ideas for consideration for a free school franchise, what if the curriculum taught about Africa as the motherland of all civilisation and as the first world people and the intelligences are ones of independence, intuition and integrity for improvement. What if the second world was the middle east and taught the writings of three men: one mission of peace to the world and the main virtue being love. What if the third world was Europe, the fatherland focusing on Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. This free school idea would teach the language and literature of the three worlds and achieve a spiritual legacy as they will learn Rites of passage education which is honouring the important milestones of human development helps us to stay in touch with our own natural cycles as individuals, as a culture and as a community.

About the Book
Martin Luther King had a dream but this book outlines a strategic vision of taking the thinking on issues of race to a higher academic level. Each chapter is written from the view of the western cultural thinker and the black cultural thinker with “black” being used in the political rather than the ethnic sense. At the end of each chapter there are a series of questions for critical thinking. The book encourages black people to elevate themselves from civil rights to civil heights. It calls for an end to the race wars and the gender wars and advocates for a holistic education for reparation; to be proud of our history and to encourage young people to dream of a better future. The vision of the book is to create a cultural business enterprise that specialises in critical thinking skills for academic, cultural and economic progress. Working within the framework of traditional academic disciplines, the book aims to empower people by cultivating critical reading skills, developing creative ideas for business whilst promoting change, insight and cultural well being. The book appeals to politicians, educationalists, teachers and the more academically inclined readers. It appeals to conservative, labour and liberal thinkers. It appeals to the far right and the far left on immigration and other issues. It is self-therapeutic, self discovering and self liberating and ensures everyone’s mental well being. It appeals to all religious denominations as it calls for a moral transformation of society.
