Summary
For a half-century or more, black people have labored under the spell of what Jesse Lee Peterson calls the zalchemists.y These are the race hustlers, media hacks, politicians, community organizers, and the like who promise to zfundamentally transformy America. The transformation they promise, however, produces only fools goldunearned benefits like welfare, food stamps, subsidized housing, payouts from lawsuits, and maybe one day even zreparations.y Worse, to secure these counterfeit goods, recipients have to sacrifice something of infinite value: the sanctity of the two-parent family. It is a devils bargain. In The Antidote: Healing America from The Poison of Hate, Blame, and Victimhood, Reverend Jesse Lee Peterson explains that this noxious, blaming mind-set has destroyed the black family, magnified racial tensions, pitted women against men, and quashed a sense of paternal responsibilitywhich in essence has killed the soul of the black community. The antidote to this poison has the power to save America and can be found inside this book. Now is the time to reject the culture of blame and find the antidoteit can save your life, your family, and your future
