The words "Not Guilty" set one man free, but somehow made all African-Americans, no matter their varied opinions, the enemy."... the defendant, Orenthal James Simpson, not guilty of the crime of murder..."
The Trial of the Century had come to an end. The verdict hit the airwaves and the eyes of the nation descended on the city that made superstars out of attorneys.
As an African-American recent college graduate living and working in the city, that verdict had a profound effect on me and the life I made for myself. The trial and the shocking verdict served as the impetus for what would be months of turmoil and unrest.
Protests, debates, and incessant banter from both sides of the aisle permeated in our membranes. Lives were changed. Alliances were formed. Mistrust became the rule, not the exception. The words "Not Guilty" set one man free, but somehow made all African-Americans, no matter their varied opinions, the enemy. No one cared to seek our perspective. No one bothered to ask the right questions. We were clumped together as if our stories were one and the same.
From the horrific Rodney King assault, to the unsettling residuum following the O.J. Simpson verdict, my life changed in profound ways.

This is not an inside accounting of the trial, or the people involved. I was neither a friend, relative, or acquaintance; nor was I a jury member.
Yet, twenty something years later, I can still recall the impact that this trial had on me, a young black woman and recent college graduate, living in Los Angeles during that time.
The point of this book is not to ask you to change your opinion of the events of June 12, 1994. (In fact, my opinion has evolved throughout the years since the murders and the trial).
I am simply sharing with you my personal experience during that time, and how it, unknowingly, has shaped the way I live, think and respond.
I hope to ignite a rigorous debate of strong opinions, and look forward to reading your reviews.
