The Race Man's Home Companion is an exposition of my own evolved positions on the important questions regarding race and identity in America.

This investigation has gone far beyond what I have required for my own individual achievement and has resulted in a body of knowlege which I beleive stands as a lesson for all Americans. My aim is to improve the quality of public citizenship in this nation.
