What God Has Allowed: The Allstate Story

By Annie Busby

An ex-PI looks into the world of corruption within the insurance industry. She peeks the insider views of her local and state government by her claims. The structure of this layman did not set well with the upper elite.

The lesson she learns cripples her interracial marriage and sets a wall of fire against her and her White husband.

This PI learns the meaning of "the blue flu," a well-established phrase that the police use within their ranks. It is a shield of closed mouths that forgets proper procedure in any case. It is a shield of cover-up that excludes the public when corruption is found.

This scandal goes deep and this interracial couple suffers for opening the floodgates to political chaos.

I trust the public will be educated in the process of filing insurance claims. I trust that interracial couples will be treated with respect in their dealings with insurance issues and not held back because of their skin color or preference of the one they choose to love.

A true story of faith, bias, and blackballing.

The Sculptured Art of Michelangelo

Dedicated to the class of people that have been conditioned to failure and deceit, the victims and the defiled that were represented by Allstate. The policy holders that have been slain, that are hungry and hurting. This book is dedicated to the websitings and the horrors that are contained therein.

For those policy holders that have lost all including their dignity, for the lawmakers that know of the betrayal and have tried to help the millions of homeowners to find relief, this book is dedicated to you—the sojourners that are paving the way for change and justice for the American consumers.

This Book is dedicated to the websitings and the horrors that are contained therein.

An ex-PI goes undercover to discover the real world of corruption within an insurance bureaucracy. She finds that the problem extends from Florida, Virginia, California, and other states.

She discovers real racism with representatives that pose as intermediaries, only to find they are lawyers hired to undermine her pleas.

Her detailed diary tells of her innermost feelings which leads to a congressional inquiry.

The Insurance Commissioner’s Office in Florida slows the hands of this bureaucracy but fails to initiate standards and laws that would assist other Floridians with vast change. This diary exposes the true world of Allstate, the undercover giants of racism, false advertisement, overpricing, and manipulation.

This diary tells the story of her family and how racism destroyed this family’s humane character.

This diary tells other insured of Allstate’s actions and that the Good Hands people really are deceitful in their dealings with consumers and delays capital that would secure their future.

For those readers who need to know or have knowledge of experiences similar to these racial injustices, then What God Has Allowed: The Allstate Story is meant to be read for its articulate value. This journal looks into the world of a giant that deceives the consumer and destroys the lives of innocent victims entrusted in its web.

Acknowledgments

The past ten months have been the most grievous of my life. I leave with Allstate all the woes that they have bestowed upon me to bare.

I hope the words within these pages will be the downfall of this greedy and vindictive class of people. May the path they have set before me be the chain that God breaks. With courage and conviction, we have victory!

The acceptance of the slap upon our faces not only annoys me, but it shows the true colors of Allstate—a greedy and manipulative agenda.

Though my face and those of our Black and interracial families set before you, the choice you made reveals to me, and the millions like me, charred, mixed creed, and innocent; that your way is slavery reflected in your untimely handling, dealings, false advertisement, overpricing, slander, and unethical behavior.

Your (Allstate) refusal to acknowledge and punish those who deliberately and viciously showed bias toward us and thousands like us, Brown faces, acknowledge to me that our Negro portion is a handout given by the upper class to the lower class as a dry bone to a hungry dog.

The morally unsound nature of Allstate and its CEOs cover up the crumbs that we, as Blacks and interracial couples, scratch to find.

Your smiling faces and lying eyes project just what your motto reveals: you are in all states, the same, unchanged, continued, and defiled.

The Sculptured Art of Michelangelo

What does this art represent to the policy holders of Allstate?

The painting and sculpture of Michelangelo represent the slain policyholders that Allstate has defiled during an unspecified duration of time.

It represents the pain and anguish of a mother who can no longer feed or cloth her family because of deceit and manipulation.

It represents the poor and needy whose trust was defiled.

It represents the tears and outcry of policy holders left broken and hurting.

It represents the nails and wounds of Allstate’s broken promises.

It represents the twisted branches around the heads of the policy holders as the tight squeeze of Allstate tightens its grip of deception, apathy, and greed.

And if this was reversed and the color of the sculptured skin was charred, it would represent the thousands of Black homeowners that Allstate’s race code and group as the underclass the defiled.

It would represent the Black and interracial couples whose trust turns to ashes.

It would represent the cow-town shanties that we as Blacks deserve to live in.

It would represent the Negro portion that of one mule and one plat of land.

It would represent the bent and broken backs of those Blacks too weak to fight against this monstrosity and give up hope.

The shattered dreams of Black folk stream down the walls of time without mercy. This is Allstate’s legacy, promise, and ethics.

These are our Black babies lying in the laps of time and mercy, thirsting for the milk of justice and equality.

Treat these pages with respect, for they shall become a personal and professional part of your insured’s life.

Respect its entries and the writings of those who reveal this material from personal effects, research, and investigative reporting for this may be the only substantial insight when dealing with insurance companies.

January 1, 1999

It’s a New Year 1999. Our hopes are that we will be able to see our home built soon!

Kris was here today. He looks changed by the cut of his facial hair. He seems much quieter and reframed. We pray our prayers are answered for his salvation.

I really feel that this is the year that God shall move upon this place. I see myself dripping in gold and climbing the hill to the top. I no longer fear the past or the thought of death. I love the family that God has allowed me to govern and nurture.

January 2, 1999

What glory God has allowed into our lives. He sends so much even though we are poor. Our home that burned held so many precious treasures that shall never be replaced, but I have a higher calling that God shall give me more than I have ever possessed this year! Even though Allstate has hurt us by racism, I don’t nurture the sin that is within their hearts. Bishop T. D. Jakes spoke of reclaiming that which was stolen from us. I claim these things because God said, Whatsoever I ask, believe it shall be done. My faith is for a new house, a home for God’s people to rest.

January 3, 1999

I fight diligently for the hopes of this year. My body is not well, but the spirit carries me farther than the flesh. Within this house lies two talented Black women whose purpose is to achieve the goals in life that our heritage has demanded. Our spirits have become free with poetry, writing, and hymns. We acknowledge God our Father first and strive to accomplish what we as Black women must. Our legacy is not cheapened by the racist of our society. We must fight to close the widening gap in this form of life.

Our voices shall be heard, and change shall be the outward cry.

January 4, 1999

I was so hurt by Tom Joyner. I called his show to get his support in a time when I was all alone. The characters on his show made fun of my situation by making the comment, The White man can’t help you. This was referenced when I told one of the show members I was married to a White man, and Allstate was really dogging us. Their cynicism and apathy was more than I could bear. I wanted to be surrounded by people who could help me and my family. The devastation that Allstate had inflicted was the greatest pain I now faced. My hopes were dashed when Tom never called me back after he said he would.

January 5, 1999

I started campaigning over two months ago against the outcry of racism and injustice to the policy holders of Allstate Insurance Company. I was enlightened by the many comments and concerns of others just like me. Many people had shared the Allstate experience and dared to share it with me. Many strangers stopped to view the handmade signs I placed upon the front of our burned-out home. There were those who stopped in the roadways to see the treachery of this company; the Good Hands people now were exposed, and their fates lie in the hands of those they misguided and cheated!

January 6, 1999

Many activists, like myself, share a common bond; we desire to see things done correctly, orderly, and precise. We face
