Shorn Sharer Mitchell Alexander Jackson

Has the 'Golden Rule' been overruled by present-day politics? Is the American Dream no longer an attainable prize for the Black American...or, presently, any American? This poetic discourse, SHORN SHARER, is a mirror held up to present-day America, as America's Black population sees its struggle for the American Dream having once again become a dream deferred. SHORN SHARER is a blend of poetry and frank discourse, as related mainly to the concerns of America's Black population. It has found its way upon your shelves because that spirit in America, which continually allows the death and dying about the world to be redressed with a footnote only, confounded my soul. Presently, has that spirit locked up the ballot box and struck links of constriction upon the rights of the American people and upon the glory of America - a glory true Americans had garnered in our behalf, had placed tenderly in our keeping. Presently, perhaps, the Spirit, leading from the Divine, has returned, touching many voices. Thus, as of the many, do I offer this voice of concern - SHORN SHARER.
