It’s not “positive vibes only.” It’s the sacred science of remembering who the hell you are. Sosa Bread pulls back the curtain on the mental and emotional sabotage that came with colonization, identity erasure, and reclassification. He exposes how so-called “Black” people were not just renamed, but...
