This book is about a father having doubts about a son being biologically his and the mental abuse he puts that child and the mother through. After pushing this kid to the streets, Deshaun searches for love in all the wrong places and ends up doing a seven year bid when he is informed by his mother that he maybe her love child. Upon release, the same drama continues back home when his father is adamant about finding the truth about him being biologically his. This takes place when Deshaun is around twenty five years old so you have to go online to authorhouse and order this book. Its a true story and I need to get you all to feel my pain. Support the movement because you will hear alot more of me, but nothing happens without your overall support.

Hi Everyone,

I self-published my first book, Pslams of the Daughter (http://psalmsofthedaughter.com). It is a collection of Christian-themed poems and short stories. I would love to get your feedback. Thanks.

Undercover Smart is a hard-hitting non fiction account of 21st century African American life in perpetual real-time. Undercover Smart accurately represent African Americans in the 21st century. The 21st century, non-fiction game is called, World Domination.

Sincerely, Enoch Mubarak

UNDERCOVER SMART
The game board is Planet Earth. The year is 2005 and beyond. Intellectual rights has replaced civil rights. The Chinese Players are the new world order. The European players are in a Custer's last stand to survive as they fend off a five pronged assault from the Chinese, Iraqis, Afghan, North Koreans and Spanish players.

Without support from the European players the Congressional Black Caucus collapses into ineffectiveness. Black minister/leaders turn, run, flee and desert the front-line.

In response to the desertion by black minister/leaders the Spanish players launch a massive all-out assault against the African American residual resources of land, food and water. The 21st century elimination of African Americans has begun.

There is no escape for the African Americans as global unrest defines its presence in every ethnic walk of life, African Americans are left defenseless and friendless in the 21st century. Without a friend on the Planet Earth African Americans are left pondering what can or should they be doing to avert what appears to be their inevitable demise.

Faced with total decimation and certain annihilation African Americans search the sky and the landscape for a hero. The African Americans desperately need divine intervention. Word is quickly spreading that ENOCH HAS RISEN!

The 2008 Undercover Smart Agenda reveals the vision, plan, blue print, technology and escape route.

UNDERCOVER SMART is crucial to the African American global experience and existence. UNDERCOVER SMART comes highly recommended reading for African American survival and personal edification.

Don't attempt to navigate the 21st century without the 2008 African American Agenda Undercover Smart ISBN#1420872559.
