    About this series

    When the death of Isaiah “Zay” Turner awakens controversy in the Midwest, Jennifer Davis and Attorney Marcus Brown band together to bring the Turner family their deserved justice. They work closely as a team to conquer allyship, defeat agenda-setting narratives, and decriminalize Isaiah’s name--alongside his mother, uncle and girlfriend, Tiara.

    With the trial of Isaiah’s killer, Robert McCarthy, coming up soon, conservative supporters protest his freedom, while provoking violence against the Black Lives Matter Movement. And when a key witness goes missing, Jennifer, Marcus, and the team, lack supporting evidence that could help put him behind bars. In attempt to locate the witness, they come across Zay’s old friend, Tyler Young, who gives them information that could potentially incriminate some really crooked people – including McCarthy and a secret criminal organization.

    The team unite with Tyler to figure out what really happened leading up to the “Fourth of July” shooting (that costed Isaiah his life). But when they’re all exposed to the bigger picture, the truth is much more disturbing than they imagine.

    Then again, the truth is never easy to hear…is it?

      From Selma to Charlottesville, the Ghosts of Our Past

      Aug 19, 2017

      There’s nothing quite like being on vacation halfway around the world and trying to explain American-style racism. As an African American, I am expected by the locals to be an expert on these matters. The backstory of every nation features different players, but the narrative is essentially the same: one group contests the humanity of another group or groups to gain power and privilege. Part of what makes it so hard to explain the American holocaust of slavery is that more than a century later, people still don’t want to tell the truth about it, which makes it impossible to honestly assess an
