Book Review: The Truth is Among Us
Summary: 5 Stars

When a young brother paints a picture about the past, will anyone one see it? Dr. Freeman is a young brother and he has the attention on many. Not only are people seeing it, but they hear him loud and clear. For years people were afaid of the "hood." Now they want the "hood."

Lance does an excellent job telling the story of how others want what African America's have failed to take care of. The hood is now for sale! Thanks Lance for writing such an insightful book.
