Growing in Bermuda, he wasn’t a big fan of school and spent lots of time absent from primary school. In high school, he enjoyed the constant social activity, although he didn’t emerge from it with degrees or qualifications.
He began doing a laborer’s work on a construction site, learning the trade. After eight weeks he started painting and decorating and went on to run his own business, the proceeds of the which he used to bring up three of his five children to the age of graduation from high school.
After graduation he brought four of the children to London, England, to further their education and get them out of a somewhat fast-changing environment. Having reached London, he quickly found life to be not much different from anywhere else.
He found that there was very little difference in the mannerisms black people used toward one another in their social interaction. He made some inquiries, and by June of 2010 he had confirmed seventy-four of the seventy-five things listed in his book.
He is a black man living in London. He has come to find that there is very little camaraderie among people of black skin color, both financially and socially and in London as well America and the Caribbean. He determined that if black people could acknowledge of some of their faults, then maybe they could find ways to change them for more progressive thinking and action.показать меньше
