My name is Ike Okwuonu, and I live in Edmond, Oklahoma, where I obtained my college education. I hold two Bachelor’s degrees and a Master’s degree in Political Science from the University of Central Oklahoma, and a second graduate degree (MHR) in Human Relations from the University of Oklahoma. I am currently working on my doctoral degree in Psychology at the University of the Rockies in Colorado. At present, I work as a mental Health Therapist (LPC Candidate). I wrote this book as a follow-up response to the question put to me one afternoon by one of my children. They were watching a movie and saw a white man cruelly castigating a young black man, an innocent black man being flogged. I told my son that the inhumanity they were watching happened during the slavery period. But despite my explanation, my son was still showing a feeling of chilling fear and anger on his face. I wrote this book to help my son and his white and black friends learn that the power of love will always transcend the love for power.
