Book Synopsis
FOCUS of EXTINCT NEVER, DISTINCT FOREVER
Almost any African American born before the middle years of the twentieth century has a provocative story to tell; a story which lends itself to a realistic understanding of the relationship between Black and Caucasian citizens of the United States of America. As such EXTINCT NEVER, DISTINCT FOREVER eliminates lamentation, castigation, criticism and prosecution to allow for introspection as each experience suggest deeper insight into the effects of habits and traditions upon race relations in the developing democracy of the U.S.
Unlike the novel approach there is an allowance for verification and further exploration. It is the story of one black man who chronicles his writing and editing for more than fifty years. The experiences begin with high school graduation and end during the seventh decade of his existence, as he reflects after a life-altering grand mal seizure during the previous decade.
