Description

Somewhere in between all the creeds and dogmas of faith lies a beautiful place of human compassion and the ability to relate to one another on the same level. There are many that have a genuine love for the people of the United States and long to see better days but standing in the way of fulfillment lies a sense of entitlement that exists as a cancer upon the collective American soul that divides us from the equality inherent to us as children of God. Coupled with the influences of the authoritarian hierarchy that maintains its power structure by the divide and conquer mentality, the theft of dignity and innocence from millions of our sisters and brothers has been brutal, leaving countless people unable to recover. More recently many have watched the light in our Statue of Liberty fade, with the evidence that our own policies are destroying lives not only in America but across the world. We are becoming like those we have been battling for decades, and our lip service of human rights is belied by our actions of torture and hypocritical policies of "stand your ground" and unrestrictive gun laws. Cultural terrorism, violence, hatred, and the like permeate our states and metropolitan cities. Laws are no longer of government but rather indeed are of persons-those who pay to escape prosecution, bringing no justice for their victims. We do not do what we say. Our light is going out. So why this book, and why now? We have to knock on hearts while we endeavor to call the dead back to life. We are at a crossroads in American history, a place of such deep divisions that dramatic change in every facet of our social structures is necessary if we are going to prevent the continued destruction of innocence, including the innocence of those who have been deceived by the erroneous dogmas of our three greatest institutions: religion, economics, and politics. Slaves of a Different Kind shines a light into the deep crevices of our own soul. While not all in these arenas are indicative of the errors, it is to reveal unholy attitudes of people of faith, the intentional methods of corporate America to enslave consumers to purchase products, and the treasonous attempts by the most disconnected Congress in generations to derail the progress we have made as a country. If we are able to embrace and repent from the damaging issues within ourselves and the elements of division and turmoil in which we have been complicit, good will come. "Yvonne offers us a prophetic cry from the heart that any American with a conscience will respond to. Do you love your family? Do you want a better future for them? Then read this book. As Yvonne says, 'We are in the evolutionary emergence of truly understanding our responsibility for one another. We understand why capitalism has failed on a cultural as well as a societal level.' Slaves of a Different Kind offers us a passionate sermon on the way out of the mess we're making of our world and our lives." -Frank Schaeffer, author of Crazy for God "Slavery is without a doubt the world's oldest form of oppression. Slaves of a Different Kind gets to the heart of the matter. Author Yvonne Williams reveals the not-so-hidden enslaving practices and mind-sets that threaten our nation's sense of morality and ethics. However, just when the hour seems darkest, she reminds us that we can break the chains of slavery and fulfill America's promise of freedom, liberty, and justice for all. Yvonne encourages us to live in the biblical spirit of 'brotherly love' for all mankind. Read this book and be inspired!" -Bill Haley, president, The Alex Haley Roots Foundation
