Overview

As America reevaluates the narrative that has been used to miseducate its children and whitewash its bloody past with the people of color in this country who call it home, John Burl Smith offers a sobering perspective that faces the origins of systemic racism and oppression as it relates to black lives. The 400th: From Slavery to Hip Hop is a prolific chronicle that focuses on the journey of African people to the Americas and their collective story as African Americans over the last 400 years. In this detailed historical account, Burl intertwines the failures and triumphs of the Black man, the Black Family, and the complex layers of the Black community while offering new generations an opportunity to use the past narrative to shape the future prologue of America. And although this body of work uses racial epithets to illustrate the overall subjugation of African-Americans to those whose bigotry has shaped this country, Burl ultimately believes this true and accurate account gives readers, regardless of race, a closer look into the lives of millions of people of color in this country and their demand for equality and justice. Warning: Eating this piece of the American pie will cause an emotional catharsis for some readers while reiterating the societal woes of citizens of the United States who have longed to be fully allowed to enjoy the constitutional rights they are denied, even until this very day. Read The 400th: From Slavery to Hip Hop, written by author John Burl Smith today.
