You say the book was in the "inspirational" section at the warehouse where you worked and the target audience was blacks. I'll accept that.

My question is that it's passed off as an autobiography. Doesn't that raise the standard for accuracy, confirmation of data, etc? Shouldn't it be noted if names have been changed or some details changed?

When I read historical fiction, I want it noted as such, and I like it written in such a way that it's clear what's fact and what's fiction.
