This text was originally published in 2004 as a provisional road map gesturing to a plan of action for liberation at the level of the idea vitally compulsory to dismantle the hegemony of the white world order of power in the 21st century. Since 2004 deconstruction of the oeuvre of Frantz Fanon, Michel Foucault, Derek Walcott, the discourse of massa of African enslavement in the Caribbean and the Thought of Xi Jinping for the New Era have been published, which has changed the nature of the road map today versus that of 2004. An extensive revision of the text of 2004 was now necessary which focuses on the the nature of hallucinatory whiteness that afflicts non-white peoples under the hegemony of massa white world order of power, thereby rendering them incapable of liberating themselves at the level of the idea. The need now was to uncover hallucinatory whiteness as it constitutes human action and how the nature of this action is the product of hallucinatory whiteness hence it reinforces white hegemony over the non-white person at the level of the idea. To this end a deconstruction of the writings of Toussaint L'Ouverture of the Haitian Revolution, George Jackson of the African Revolution of Amerikkka and skin bleaching in the Caribbean in the 21st century are presented as case studies illustrating potently the debilitating power hallucinatory whiteness wields over the mind of non-white persons who insist they are champions of liberation, which drives the resilience of massa hegemony over non white peoples of the world.

Though this book is written as a memoir, at its core, Things That Linger is a love story about two people who met during the late days of the sex, drugs and rock-and-role era, and fell passionately and madly in love. Though there was a moment early in their life together when it could have all fallen apart - love prevailed. The first chapters take the reader up close and personal into Bruce and Kate's painful (and separate) experiences following the unexpected news that the pain Kate had been suffering for months was more serious than either of them realized: Kate needed, and received emergency surgery, in what turned out to be a futile attempt to save her life. From there, the story takes the reader on a journey through the deep sorrow and near impossible grief Bruce experienced in those first months after Kate died. The rest of the story chronicles their life over the course of nearly 48 years, facing the many trials and tribulations life threw at them. Though neither of them knew it then, those difficult experiences helped them to develop interpersonal skills that deepened and strengthened their relationship, and in time, led them to seek and to find a deep and personal relationship with the Divine, through Grace. Their many faceted spiritual journey with the persistent interplay between love and Divine Grace is told by way of a series of life episodes that both humbled and made glorious their life together. The book concludes with a heartfelt evaluation, as Bruce seeks to make sense of his life without his wife, friend, lover and life-long partner. His conclusions are valuable during troubled times.
