In this autobiography, Dr. Bell recounts many mind-shaping memories as he describes and explains (a) his youthful social orientations, his early schooling and family life (b) his college life, army career and adult family living experiences; (c) the reasoning that motivated his religion pilgrimage from Baptist to Muslin to becoming a humanist, a person who believes that humans are capable of building ethical societies without the notion of superhuman or supernatural gods; and (d), the mental awakening that prompted him to try to persuade black people to stop their "Jesus worshipping" practices. Dr. Bell argues that "Jesus worshipping" practices are really "white male worshipping" practices, and such practices subconsciously induce in Black people a sense of racial inferiority and promote in white people a sense of white superiority.
