Betrayal By Any Other Name systematically answers the controversial question of who truly speaks for- African Americans and Hispanic Americans. Over 800 attention-riveted pages beginning in Africa before and through the terror of slavery, Civil War reconstruction, Civil Rights and Black Nationalism. A similar treatment is presented in the evolution of Hispanic leadership couched in little known historical facts about Aztec and Mayan civilizations, how the west was-really won, and how Hispanic leadership came into existence. Probabilities are probed for future Black Brown coalitions and cooperation as the two groups grow to comprise the-majority of America. Many penetrating insights and ideas are presented, a few of which are:
- The application of the psychological phenomena "multiple personality disorder" to African-Americans as "group multiple personality disorder".
- Significant Islamic influences on the development and growth of the fiery nationalist leader, Marcus Garvey.
- The meteoric rise and philosophy of a former slave and one of-the wealthiest Blacks in the history of America, Paul Cuffe.
- A practical approach for community self-help efforts-toward an about-face in school drop-outs, crime, incarceration, drugs, etc. which has reached crisis status in the Black community according to the most-recent annual report of the National Urban League.-
