Extinguish Racial Prejudice

EXTINGUISH the FLAMES of Racial Prejudice - THE FORT PILLOW MASSACRE was copyrighted by David Ndilei in 1996. He is the sole owner, researcher, and author. (I.E.F. Publishing) was dissolved.

We discovered that someone has removed our cover and selling, without our authority, OUR book. Instead of taking legal action, at this time, it was decided to create a new Revised 2nd Edition and offer it for FREE.

The Revised Second Edition of EXTINGUISH the FLAMES of Racial Prejudice - THE FORT PILLOW MASSACRE has new pictures and new discoveries. It is 298 pages, with 470 footnotes plus additional documents and research material.

Two reasons why the cover was removed.

FIRST: They DID NOT WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE the CRUELTY. WHY is acknowledging the cruelty necessary? For the answer, think about people who have been abused. How do they get emotional relief? By hiding what happened or by talking about it? Facing the reality of the abuse and talking about it gives others the opportunity to show compassion, mercy, and understanding. This is what comforts them. Though what happened was years ago, the thinking and attitudes that caused the abuse have remained.

EXTINGUISH the FLAMES of RACIAL PREJUDICE uses documents that are firsthand primary sources. The documents contain the abusers own words. Their words reveal their PREJUDICES; LIES; PARANOIA; and FEAR.

Fear and Paranoia existed because they could not accept the fact that the ones they abused were more noble minded than they were. This, their victims proved when the tables were turned, for they did not torture them as they had been tortured. Instead, they had a FORGIVING ATTITUDE.

A close look at the face of the man on the cover of the book shows dignity and self respect, and not the vengeful look of hate. He will join the Union Army, not in an act of hate and revenge, but, out of a desire to rescue others from enslavement.

SECOND: They object to the words THE FORT PILLOW MASSACRE. The book proves that a MASSACRE did occur. The reason for hiding this fact is more shocking than what I could have imagined.

It was hoped, that by looking at the picture of the slave on the cover and information on the back cover, one would get the connection and conclude that a "Whipping-House" is what caused the wounds. Gordon explains who whipped him, but does not give the details. Though there is a report of a "Whipping-House" located not far from Nathan Bedford Forrest's Plantations, there are reasons for believing that there are other "Whipping-Houses" for Forrest had Slave Pens in Missouri, Tennessee, and Mississippi.
