About this ebook
The Power "2b" (to be) or become is most certainly a divine right. Those who are direct decendants of the slave ships, jim crow south and institutionalized racism that is still causing inequality...it is to these matters that inspired me to share my thoughts of outrage from a first hand viewpoint.
Author
Ralph B. Cooper
My name is Ralph B. Cooper, I started writing poems on various online social media groups and poetry sites. My poetry name is 2b2b2, which can mean to be; to become or just being. The #2 and the letter "B" are my favorite number and letter and that is basically the origin of my poetic name. My writes mostly focus on humanity and the chronicles of the human experience, good, bad and all that comes between.
