## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well Written, informing.
*by G***D on May 8, 2025*

Must read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow! Must reading for all!
*by R***E on July 13, 2024*

I think it would benefit any and all readers of all races and cultures and spiritual orientation. I was totally impacted by the history and have no doubt that our people and our country are still impacted by slavery today. I believe self-awareness is often a great first step for change, growth, improvement, and health, and this book can be the impetus for such awareness. Great job Dr. Degruy, keep on pursuing justice.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Post Traumatic Slave/Spiritual Disorder
*by B***. on August 26, 2016*

This is an excellent book on a particular type of PTSD: Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. This disorder, as the title implies, is "Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome. DeGruy does an outstanding job of documenting the dehumanizing experience of black Africans being sold into slavery, being transported in ships under grossly inhumane conditions, and being dehumanized by being treated as property in the United States [the land of the free...]. Then blacks in the USA, after the Civil War, being legally free but suffering under legalized segregation, denial of voting rights, and other Jim Crow Laws. The author traces the influence of this horrible background on the mind, attitudes, and social adaptations of blacks in the United States today. Many of the social problems of crime, violence, and proverty have their roots in slavery, some have called, "The Original Sin" of America. This phenomena parallels about what I have written in my books, "Spiritual Terrorism" and "Christianity Without Insanity," about another form of PTSD: Post Traumatic Spiritual Disorder. Fear-based Christianity was often used as a tool to help keep the salves in subjection, after they had converted to Christianity. Slave masters quoted the Bible, "Slaves obey your masters." Many poor uneducated white people have been and still are kept in subjection by the powers that be by threats of eternal torture in literal hell fire for not accepting Christ and doing A, B,and C and/or not doing X, Y, and Z. Many people of all races have been brainwashed to be obedient pawns of fear-based religion, in general, and so-called orthodox Christianity in particular.
