The inspiration that motivated me to write this story about Royal Cyril Brooks is the fact that he is a civil rights martyr, overlooked in American history, which took over seventy years to discover that Royal Cyril Brooks was an innocent victim of law enforcement brutality and unfair justice in America during the Jim Crow era.

It's also an explanation of how the injustice has affected the Brooks family lineage, and how the Black race is in a position of inferior status as a human being in this country due to hidden laws designed to keep us as third-class citizens by use of the constitution.

So it is crucially important that we continue, very diligently, to demand equal rights.
