Americans With African Roots Empowered (A'WA'RE™) offers a grounded and insightful exploration of the history and identity of the Hebrew Israelites, tracing their journey from biblical times through centuries of exile, colonization, and cultural erasure. Beginning with King James VI and I, the book examines how his influence shaped the Bible's translation and how this version was used to reinforce imperial agendas.

Through careful comparison with ancient texts such as the Ethiopian Bible and analysis of removed or suppressed scriptures, the book reveals how religious doctrine was reshaped to justify colonization and slavery. The transformation of the Hebrew Israelite faith into a tool of European dominance is laid bare, showing how key elements of biblical history were distorted or omitted.

Spanning events from the founding of Jamestown to the transatlantic slave trade, this work connects pivotal historical moments to the ongoing journey of a people whose story has often been hidden. It also explores the cultural endurance and prophetic traditions of the Hebrew Israelites, the evolving role of women, and the spiritual impact of the King James Bible on African-American communities.

This is both a historical reexamination and a call to rediscover truth, identity, and legacy in the face of centuries of misrepresentation.
