This book is a devastating critique, of black liberal, socialistic, left-wing, Democratic, progressive, communist, pundits like Louis Farrakhan, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Maxine Waters, etc. who spread their message of victimhood, racism, and hate. You'll read how the majority of blacks are "brainwashed" by the Democratic party, why the problem within the black community is not racism but a lack of moral character, why the problem isn't material but spiritual, why the problem isn't white vs. black, but right vs. wrong. Rev. Peterson not only states the problems, but offers a solution. SCAM is shamelessly conservative and Christian. Prepare yourselves!

Here's an abridged transcript between Peterson and Dyson on the Hannity and Colmes show that graphically depicts what Peterson has gone through:
HANNITY: Jesse, let's see, you're claiming that Mr. Dyson and others called you ignorant, accused you of being the white man's boy, attacked your education, the way you spoke, said you were a pawn for the white man. I thought this was a conference where there's a free and open exchange of ideas. You can't have a different viewpoint without being personally assaulted and your character assassinated?
PETERSON: You know, I thought the same thing, Sean. I was invited there by the National Association of Black Journalists to debate the issue of reparations. And I was debating Michael Eric Dyson. There were about 300 or so black journalists there from across the country. Michael Dyson gets up. They gave him the first and the last word, by the way. Michael gets up and he presents his reasons for reparations. And it was the same old stuff you hear all the time. You know, the slavery and the white man.... I get up and I say that reparations is racist, it is divisive, and it's another way for the so-called leaders, black leaders, to use black Americans to gain power and wealth.... it was at that point, Sean, that they started screaming and calling me names and telling me that I'm... a white man's boy.
HANNITY: Jesse, I want to go to Michael Dyson.... you wrote this... "if you've ever wondered what a self-hating black man who despises black culture and worships at the alter of whiteness looks like, take a gander at the Reverend Jesse Lee Peterson. In Peterson's mind, black rates of teen pregnancy, the breakdown of the black family, and black peoples' addiction to civil rights advocacy are the unerring symptoms of moral failures. Michael, you know what? I didn't picture you as a mean-spirited person. What you wrote here is mean spirited.
DYSON: I don't think so, Sean. I respect your opinion, but had you been there to see the full volley of venom that Reverend Peterson directed toward black people, here you are, I think, trying to make the victim...
HANNITY: Worship at the altar of whiteness? Worship at the altar of whiteness?
DYSON: Reverend Peterson at the convention spewed some of the most venomous, vindictive, hateful venom...
PETERSON: Like what?
DYSON: ...toward black people that one might imagine.
PETERSON: Like what, Michael?
DYSON: He said we were totally reprehensible, we were immoral, we had no reason to argue for our own equal standing in African/American society.
PETERSON: Michael, you're not...
DYSON: Let me finish.
PETERSON: That's not what I said.
DYSON: Once black people then morally rehabilitate themselves then they will be available for that kind of thing. And I think that's reprehensible.
COLMES: Reverend Peterson, did you say to Michael Dyson, "Jesus does not speak to you." Did you say that to him?
PETERSON: Michael was quoting the scriptures, right? And I said to him that he has the words of the bible, but he doesn't know God at all because there is no way you can know God and teach this type of hatred.
DYSON: Sean, what do you think about that? What do you think about that, Sean?
COLMES: That's pretty attacking.
PETERSON: You can't have love and hate in your heart, Michael.
DYSON: No, no, no, I don't have any hate in my heart. Here's my point.
PETERSON: Yes, you do.
DYSON: Those...
PETERSON: You hate white people.
ON: OK, I hate white supremacy. I hate black bigotry. What I'm telling you if those firemen who are coming home from New York, if you say to them, look, you made some mistakes on 9/11. Therefore, you are to blame for what happened on 9/11. That would be ludicrous. That is comparable to what Mr. Reverend Peterson said to African-American people. And that is self-hating and self-abnegating... Here's a man who's telling me as a minister that I don't know even God. Telling me I don't know God.
PETERSON: You don't.
COLMES: But what they're saying is that you went beyond that. You went on to talk about how immoral black people are, how hateful they are of black Americans. They deserve no kind of positive treatment until they get away from civil rights leaders.
PETERSON: I didn't say that, Alan.
DYSON: Yes, you did.
PETERSON: I didn't say that. I said that unless we restore the family, unless fathers and mothers come back to guide their children in the right way to go, no money will solve that problem.
