“The Deprogramming of Black America,” is a short self-help book specifically written for African Americans. Black people in America need to understand that the "slave mentality" is an underlying psychological problem that exist within the African American mind. Hopefully, this piece will light a fire in the individual’s soul, so that as a people we can begin to focus on the greatness that we have to offer, not only to ourselves, but to the entire world.

It is certain that the time for Black America to rise above its current mediocrity is now and if we allow this window of opportunity to close we will be forever lost, living in a land where we will never be truly equal. In my experiences throughout life, Black people have become so involved with individual success, that we have somehow forgotten what is happening to our race as a whole. This is the type of behavior that must stop if we are to ever be recognized for our true significance to this prominent nation, the United States of America.
