About the Book
The idea of writing this book, titled “Killing of African-Americans by Racist Cops”, came up when Father John Osom was teaching a course on Contemporary Issues in Ethics among which was Racism in the University of St Thomas. Houston Texas in 2015. This book refutes categorization of people into “Black and White” compartment in which the blacks are regarded as inferior that can be disposed of at will for any reason by racist Police officers on the road while at the same time the “Whites” regarding themselves as superior, may not even be charged for violating the law. The book highlights the fact that the color of African-Americans is brown and not black while the color of the Caucasians is pale and not white as alleged. This book invites every person to be respectful of people irrespective of their complexion.
