Bukky Akinyemi John Perkins and Thomas Tarrants converge life stories that certainly seem irreconcilable. After a shoot-out with law enforcement, he ended up in the state penitentiary in Parchman, Mississippi. D.C. John Perkins has offered his entire life for the sake of justice, and he has the scars that always come with such commitment, having been bludgeoned almost to death in a Brandon County jail in Mississippi and having received similar physical and psychological beatings throughout his life in Mississippi and California. Only these can address the pains and wounds of our country that have not yet begun to heal. He invites white people committed to racial reconciliation to relocate into a community of color, to follow the leadership of the community, and to seek true partnership.
