In these trying times, when nobody knows the answers to the solve the violence and hatred filling our streets it is my responsibility as a Psychologist to offer help. My client roster has risen dramatically with the introduction of COVID19, and the incredibly brutal callous murder of George Floyd by a police officer. His name rings out across the country and is accompanied by far too many others, killed by police officers abusing their power excessively. My new book was in the works since 2016, and it seems now is the time to release it to publication.
CONFESSIONS OF A BENIGN RACIST -
by James W.B. Manuel
The next book written by Dr. James W.B. Manuel is intended to promote so called 'racial' unity, equality, and equity. In this new book, the author writes in first person to confess his own racist behavioral and cognitive history, and his emotional experiences of discrimination.
He says that being discriminated based on being Black fueled his racist acts from once being morbidly malign to now, hopefully remaining benign. This book shows how experiences and learning of others' experiences of oppression can fuel a member of the human race toward malevolent behavior.
The book's title: CONFESSIONS OF A BENIGN RACIST is meant to inspire all humans to acknowledge their biases and resolve their internal conflicts, as a first step toward lasting peace on Earth.
(excerpt)
The simple breakdown of the word racism can define us all as racists. At least all humans born after the 1600's when Black people were made into lifelong slaves to White Supremacist masters. This was the first time in human history when a group of people were made slaves for life, and it be based on the complexion of there skin.
RACE is defined: a grouping of humans based on shared physical or social qualities into categories generally viewed as distinct by society. The term was first used to refer to speakers of a common language and then to denote national affiliations. By the 17th century the term began to refer to physical traits.
ISM is defined: a distinctive practice, system, or philosophy, typically a political ideology or an artistic movement.
