About
the book - This book’s intent is to convey to Black America the
curse that I believe it has been under for approximately 40 years.
Although sins have been since the beginning of time, there have
always been those in leadership positions in whom the people
believed for guidance. For Black America, the leadership that
opened the door for sin was in position during the civil rights
movement. Since the civil rights era, blacks have certainly given
the appearance that all is well, but statistics show a different
story. Today, we rank first place in every demeaning area of life
that can be named from incarceration to child abuse. All over the
United States, blacks bear a resemblance to one another. Drugs are
prevalent, and robbery in black neighborhoods has become a
profession. Many professionals are living immoral lifestyles, full
of corruption.
There is
no reason to be in despair because there is a cure for the curse
on Black America. The cure must be done in an open environment
among church leadership and those who have been called in
strategic positions to lead our people. The repentance must
take place in the Church because it has been living a lie and is
in denial. This “curse” over God’s people must be broken with
Confession, Repentance, and Prayer. When this takes place,
we will see a new Black America.

Gideon Christian Fellowship, a
multicultural church located in New Orleans. Along with his
pastoral responsibilities at Gideon, he serves as apostle of

Apostle Wooten ministers with a
powerful apostolic-pastoral anointing. His passion is to equip,
train, and release the saints to do the work of the ministry and
to fulfill the call of God on their lives. He has a burning
desire to raise up apostolic houses of prayer for all nations
and also to restore nations to their moral and Godly
foundations. With a strong prophetic voice, he has had a
