Game of Chains

As wisdom has it, time on earth and tide in the ocean wait for no man. It's also true that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step; but a journey from here to hell and back, may never be a pleasant story to tell. "Game of Chains" is a true story, told in support of besieged and struggling people worldwide; it's also a story, told to empower beleaguered and disadvantaged people around the world.

Similarly, rising from the homelands of Apartheid to the highest offices in the motherland is equally, nothing short of a miracle.

Finally, rising from the obscurity of red Indians and chiefs to today's thriving Tribal Nations is surely, nothing short of a miracle. But what is even more miraculous is that, such shameful atrocities and such heinous crimes against humanity have all happened in human society. Nevertheless, such amazing triumphs of good over evil, and such astounding achievements of repressed people around the world, from the most humble beginnings in bondage to the highest levels of human dignity, have also happened in human society. "Game of Chains" is a story of one race of people, sent on a treacherous journey to hell and back, and yet, the essence of my story came to fulfillment right before our eyes in this generation of our lifetime.
