While human cannibalism has attracted considerable notice and controversy, certain aspects of the practice have received scant attention. These include the connection between cannibalism and xenophobia: the capture and consumption of unwanted strangers. Likewise ignored is the connection to slavery: the fact that in some societies slaves and persons captured in slave raids could be, and were, killed and eaten. This book explores these largely forgotten practices and ignored connections while making explicit the links between cannibal acts, imperialist influences and the role of capitalist trading practices. These are highly important for the history of the slave trade and for understanding the colonialist history of Africa.

Friend, the Lord has spoken better things of you. Don't settle at the plain, go further with the Lord. There is more to God than speaking in tongues. You are eligible to experiencing these over-flows. Consider the mighty experiences of the men of faith, yet they didn't finish their divine proportion of grace. Refuse to end the journey with premature satisfaction like Noah. Lay aside every past experience that wants to hold you back from these encounters. Prepare your heart as you make a journey with the Lord 'behind the veil'. There is a plan of regulation and ordinances but the divine law states that if anyone is dissatisfied with the plan then they must go up.

This story is taken from the Gospel of John in the Holy Bible and the parallel story is taking place at the same time. The parallel story is about three precocious children, Zoey 12 years old, Kim 10 years old and Ben 11 years old. Zoey and Kim have traveled back in time to when Christ Jesus ministered on earth. Zoey and Kim want their friends back in their home town to believe that Jesus existed as a living person then and continues to live in heaven with God the Father. The plan they have designed is to take film footage back home of the events that occurred during Jesus’ ministry on earth. This moving story about the death, burial and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus has far reaching implications for those of us who are born again Christians and to those of you who may want Jesus to come into your heart and change your life forever. Enjoy this book as you see a part of Jesus’ life portrayed; a story about Jesus who has been our hope since we first gained knowledge about Him.
