    About this ebook

    Two Continents One Hope is a book that focuses on the many societal ills that plagues the global black community with a real danger of annihilation. When S. Denice Newton traveled to South Africa in November 2011, she was able to personally witness the impact of the AIDS/HIV pandemic that is destroying families and futures on the continent. Upon returning to the U.S., Denice began to focus on those things that are affecting the quality of life for black people in America. In addition to high numbers of AIDS/HIV, American blacks are faced with systemic racism, high rates of crime and violence, gangs, drugs, and more. However, Denice writes that there is still hope for change. Through the subtitle, "Searching The Atlantic For The Souls Of Black People," Denice shows how the Transatlantic Slave trade continues to have an impact on many behaviors. She also highlights the many self-inflicted actions that are causing chaos and hopelessness in many black communities.

As a speaker, she has been described as “passionate, compelling, authoritative, and captivating.” As an activist she has organized panel discussions on race relations and anti-bullying forums, and founded Generation BEFY Network (Black, Educated, Focused, Yielded) and the ROAR Network (Reach Out And Recover), in addition to Ari’el Rising. Denice has worked in public and private schools for the past twenty years in various capacities, including behavior modification and technology, and as a substitute teacher. She is an ambassador with the Africa Alive Education Foundation, a group whose mission includes providing food, clean water, supplies, and education services to families around South Africa and those most affected by the AIDS pandemic. Her personal motto, “change is the only force powerful enough to break the backbone of inevitability,” is one that she teaches and lives by daily.
