The Law of Success
$15.99

This is the master volume of the extraordinary work that began the career of Napoleon Hill. Originally produced by Hill in 1928 as an eight-book series, The Law of Success is now available to contemporary readers in a single edition, redesigned and reset for ease of reading.

The Law of Success is the golden key to Hill's thought--his complete and unabridged mind-power method for achieving your goals. After interviewing dozens of industrialists, diplomats, thought leaders, and successful people from all walks of life, the young Hill distilled what he learned into these fifteen core lessons, organized with an introductory chapter, 'The Master Mind,' that serves as a primer to Hill's overall philosophy.

As Hill saw it, these lessons work as a "mind stimulant" that "will cause the student to organize and direct to a DEFINITE end the forces of his or her mind, thus harnessing the stupendous power which most people waste."

While future classics of Napoleon Hill would inspire millions of readers, there is no substitute for The Law of Success for everyone who wants to grasp the full range of Hill's ideas and tap their transformative power.

All who read, understand, and apply this philosophy will be better prepared to attract and enjoy these spiritual values.

BE PREPARED! When you expose yourself to the influence of this philosophy, you may experience a CHANGED LIFE which can help you negotiate your way through life with harmony and understanding and prepare you for the accumulation of abundant material riches.

Nature Knows No Color Line
$25.00

In Nature Knows No Color-Line, originally published in 1952, historian Joel Augustus Rogers examines the origins of racial hierarchy and the color problem. Rogers was a humanist who believed that there were no scientifically evident racial divisions―all humans belong to one "race." He believed that color prejudice generally evolved from issues of domination and power between two physiologically different groups. According to Rogers, color prejudice was then used a rationale for domination, subjugation and warfare. Societies developed myths and prejudices in order to pursue their own interests at the expense of other groups. This book argues that many instances of the contributions of indigenous people had been left out of the history books, and gives many examples.

Sex and Race Complete Vol Series by JA Rogers
$64.62

Classic work of black study provides detailed historico-biographical surveys of black history

In the Sex and Race series, first published in the 1940s, historian Joel Augustus Rogers questioned the concept of race, the origins of racial differentiation, and the root of the "color problem." Rogers surmised that a large percentage of ethnic differences are the result of sociological factors and in these volumes he gathered what he called "the bran of history"—the uncollected, unexamined history of black people—in the hope that these neglected parts of history would become part of the mainstream body of Western history. Drawing on a vast amount of research, Rogers was attempting to point out the absurdity of racial divisions. Indeed his belief in one race—humanity—precluded the idea of several different ethnic races. The series marshals the data he had collected as evidence to prove his underlying humanistic thesis: that people were one large family without racial boundaries. Self-trained and self-published, Rogers and his work were immensely popular and influential during his day, even cited by Malcolm X. The books are presented here in their original editions.

The Backdrop
Don was like Moses. Moses never was captured, instead he prospered. His mother sent him down the river to protect him from danger. And Moses rose to the status of prince, this is when he began to witness the captivity of his people. Therefore Moses set his people free by using all of his resources.
Don was saved too—- by the river of wisdom, he was a target, as all the guys growing up in Shalom (Salem) were & have been for since the Romans discovered their lands.

We aren’t taught civics and economics yet it’s all around us. We rather be by-products, as oppose to reclaim yo own crown. Don’s mission was to elevate his people to higher heights and follow their own religion the only religion, intuition, because all comes from within not without, insallah.

Maco Distro” The Science of Distribuiton | eilm al•taw [tall]/ zie [zee aye]

My Arabic brethren expressed to me that Elim means to learn/ the study of a subject, and my comprehension of Al means all that is within, ie Allah (all •law). Therefore The title علم التوزيع means the study of all transportation as a science because transportation is universal principle. The short story in The Opening complements the title well.



The Concept

If I was a music producer I would mix classical with the blues and master that with hard core hip hop, that’s the energy I brought to this masterpiece. I don’t think it’s ever be done in writing, mixing a realistic fiction novel with an educational text book, that’s like graffiti on a chalkboard. I call it genre mixing.
When I was in high school I always hated opening up text books, literature was considered boring to us. That’s because we wasn’t reading the right shit, my books wasn’t out yet! My literature is Hip Hop. I got bars of paragraphs, and a lot of them, that’s just how it go, that’s just how I flow. This that shit that talk to people soul. However knowing that I’m not gon talk about no bs, I’m feed the reader with real fundamental knowledge with every sentence, word.
This next generation has to become accustomed to reading habitually, so I customize my literature in creative ways to enhance your reading experience. I showcase this talent in my fourth novel, everything from the cover design, the embossment, and the text is all customized by me, this is just a snippet of what’s coming in the future. Creativity is the key to our salvation.
