Take a rollercoaster ride through tribal identity, and discovery. Enter a world where up is down, and right is wrong. Where everything we’ve been taught by peer groups is designed to suppress individual empowerment.
Provocative and at times incendiary, “Escaping Culture – Finding Your Place in the World” challenges readers to question traditions, societal hierarchies, and philosophies. How do we define culture, race, ethnicity, spirituality and identity?
How do we find meaning and purpose? How do we better relate to each other? How do we define morality? How do we interpret our mortality?
How do we interact with the world around us? How do we control, enhance and empower our lives? How do we find our place in the world?
In a socially fractured world filled with people seeking answers to higher consciousness and meaning, it offers as testimony, an authentic telling of cultural rebellion, humor and heart rendering anecdotes.
And of life discovered, marinated in an introspective stew of indulgence, compassion, and redemption.
The book embraces honest introspection, piecing together life-altering observations about self, family, friendship, racial and ethnic distinctiveness, religion, politics, and nationality. And the significance of being a free-thinking member of the human race. “Escaping Culture” is a story we all share. One of love, life, death, humor, sacrifice, accomplishment and redemption.
It’s a privilege to share it with the Steemit community.
Excerpts from the book are posted every few days. Look for “Prologue” Part I.
Thanks for reading.

I thought the first tag "introduceyourself" was permanent and that I couldn't remove it. Advise if I can remove it for future posts.
