In fact, the rumor then was that the Black Panther Party considered it required reading. The Commando Publishing Group republishes this novel to honor a man whose 79 years of life were further enriched by his opportunities to join forces with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to create a slogan to uplift the social consciousness of African Americans. This novel, set in the early-1900?s-era New Orleans, is an eye-popping tale of how one man?s rage at the murder and degradation of his people in addition to the raping and humiliation of black women spurs him to assemble a team of fearless warriors dedicating their lives to eradicating racism and bigotry. With Herculean strength and Einstein?s intellectual horsepower, these leaders were armed to confront racial injustice while defending their women, children and the elderly?all while providing the helpless with the metaphorical hope that other comic book super heroes, like Zorro and The Shadow, represented for years. You will marvel as the leader, Denis Jackson, unveils and preps his elite fighting force known as The Black Commandos. Amidst all the action, Dr. Jackson brilliantly interweaves the secrets to better relationships between men and women; and mother and child in this epic novel. This book is spellbinding!
