(Akiit.com) Frederick, MD Feb 11, 2008 — PublishAmerica is proud to present Fruits of Our Labor: America’s Prosperity on the Backs of Blacks by Fayton L. Washington of Damascus, Maryland.

The trend in America since the birth of this nation has been its unforgiving obsession with segregation, prejudice, and inequality. This book will bring into existence the context of racism and its effects on an African-American. It questions the prevailing enigma through the years of triumph, accomplishments, and contribution to the stronghold and growth of black America by asking those who impose their hatred and negativity this one question: Am I still a nigger? For the record, we are not niggers. That title does not belong to us and we do not take ownership. Being a nigger is inclusive of all races and exclusive just the same.

Fruits of Our Labor is a motivational tool dedicated to inspiring African-Americans through empowerment, realization, and self-gratification of the achievement of their ancestors. It deals with the trials and tribulations of being black in America, being poor in America, and being American in America. It also takes the reader through different significant issues that have split the foundation of America or challenged our beliefs.

Fayton L. Washington is a young writer born to a single mother in the poverty-stricken home front of Salters, SC. His writing is influenced by great African American writers and intellectuals such as Langston Hughes, Maya Angelou, and Frederick Douglass to name a few. Similar to these individuals, Fayton believes that African Americans can to achieve all they aspire to be. At the age of 24, he has graduated from the University of South Carolina, is currently employed as a manager at a leading insurance firm in Rockville, MD, has obtained his MBA, and married his inspiration as well as the love of his life. Never give up.
