A Manifesto: Christian America’s Contract with Minorities

More than in any time in our nation’s history, there’s a greater opportunity now for minority populations to let their voices be heard, influence society, and reshape the role of government in their lives.This is not the time for violence, nor is it the time to demand more handouts from governments that have failed to give minorities what they truly need and deserve: a better life so they can achieve their own destiny.A Manifesto: Christian America’s Contract with Minorities by Bishop Harry R. Jackson Jr. sets the stage for a biblical agenda or manifesto to bring about social change in our nation. Christians of every denomination and ethnic stripe are welcome to join this coalition to contribute to our national vision and strategic direction.Rather than continuing to let government view minorities as precocious children too young to drive, A Manifesto offers an outline to strengthen people to work together to be empowered in key areas, from education and public policy reform to wealth creation and entrepreneurship.Christians everywhere are urged to join in and build a brighter tomorrow for all of us!ReviewThis newest book by Bishop Harry Jackson is powerful! It is clear, compelling, convincing, and convicting. Read it and be blessed! Then buy copies for your friends. -- Rick Warren ? Author, The Purpose-Driven LifeThe image of America today is no longer one of a tall Uncle Sam in a big patriotic hat, waving and smiling at the crowd during a Fourth of July parade. People are angry-and rightly so. But rioting and looting is not the answer. The good news is the answer can be found right here in this book. A Manifesto: Christian America’s Contract with Minorities by my good friend, Bishop Harry R. Jackson Jr., lays out a course for all races and creeds to come together and work for a better tomorrow for everyone. -- Robert Morris ? Author and Senior Pastor, Gateway ChurchBishop Harry Jackson has been at the forefront of healing the racial divide in America. Several years ago, he asked me to help encourage reconciliation in the church and nation. It has been my honor to work alongside him. He has built on this platform with the release of a Christ-centered manifesto, using the acronym “EMPOWERED” to provide a biblical agenda for social correction in America. By weaving in personal stories he has experienced as a black man, his suggested guidelines for reform come alive. I consider Bishop Harry Jackson to be one of the greatest, most courageous, and compassionate leaders I’ve ever known. He truly loves his neighbor and with all his heart wants God’s best for everyone on this planet. He will prove to be a major factor in preserving our precious freedom and healing racial misunderstanding and hurt. Please read this great book, as you will hear not only the bishop’s heart, but also our heavenly Father’s heart. -- James Robison ? Founder, LIFE Outreach InternationalIn an era of knee-jerk reactions and an overabundance of opinions, ideologies, and political partisanship, Bishop Harry Jackson’s voice cuts to the core of what matters most with thoughtful, well-researched, and experience-based solutions that are desperately needed for the times we are living in today. -- Jentezen Franklin ? Author and Senior Pastor, Free ChapelBishop Jackson’s A Manifesto is a beacon of hope, and a clear roadmap to repentance, healing, and restoration for our times. -- Evangelist Alveda C. King ? Alveda King MinistriesIn this incredibly explosive new book, Bishop Harry Jackson Jr. gives us an honest evaluation of how America’s morality, individual rights, and fairness for all have crumbled in our society-by untethering ourselves from individual and collective accountability. In his latest book, A Manifesto: Christian America’s Contract with Minorities, Bishop Jackson lays out a biblical strategy for all races and creeds to work together for a better future for everyone. With America’s future hanging in the balance,
