The caught-on-camera death of George Floyd on May 25, 2020 shook the conscience of both the nation and the international community in a way that had not been seen since the death of Emmett Till 65 years earlier, forcing a new generation of Americans to face the sobering reality that as a nation, we have not fully turned the corner on the dark legacy of our country's race-based history.

The caught-on-camera death of George Floyd on May 25, 2020 shook the conscience of both the nation and the international community in a way that had not been seen since the death of Emmett Till 65 years earlier, forcing a new generation of Americans to face the sobering reality that as a nation, we have not fully turned the corner on the dark legacy of our country's race-based history. The tragic deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd that year trumpeted a fact well understood by most African Americans: there is still much work to do before America truly becomes the land of liberty and justice for all! In Black Man: A Prophecy of Hope for the Times Ahead, Greg L. Davis brings a fresh perspective to the systemic struggles African American and black people currently face. While addressing the legacy of chattel slavery, Jim Crow and institutional racial biases which have set African Americans back several generations socially, economically, educationally and politically, the author shifts the narrative by introducing a Biblically-based, prophetic assertion regarding "divine reparations" which he contends are immediately available to descendants of Transatlantic slavery victims worldwide in the form of "life capital"--endowments by which African American and black persons can take possession of the unrealized inheritance of their ancestors. The author boldly predicts that divine judgments upon the American system of racial hierarchy will occur within this decade while encouraging all black people to understand that the key to permanent change in the fight for equality and justice, for all people, is in their hands.
