Background
10 years in the making and yet relevant today. Adam Abraham's first book is a personal chronicle of our social times, mores, and vision. He explores the power of dreaming wonderfully, and examines the "successes" that we experience too frequently when our expectations -- of ourselves and of others -- are set too low.

Quotes
"We cannot hate someone whom we ourselves do not know on the basis of their appearance and an extrapolated assumption of their opinion about us. It makes no sense whatsoever to make that 'other' responsible—in whole, or in part—for our own lack of well-being. We also do not “love our own” by rationalizing, excusing, or otherwise condoning the evil that we do to each other. This is a human issue, not 'black and white.'"
Why didn’t someone tell Two Live Crew that a song and music video that depicts a man killing policemen was (1) inflammatory, (2) would result in a societal backlash against blacks who looked and acted like these people, and (3) depicts activities that we do not wish anyone to even suspect is condoned?!
A Freed Man: An Emancipation Proclamation
When the net impact of the ideas we embrace and promote becomes an affront to the soul of the society, we have abused our freedom. It is the right of all who are exposed to our message, to turn it off, or turn away.
