About Andre Davis
Author of Our Two Societies -- 2017 Best Indie Book Award winner for non-fiction and
5.0 out of 5 stars Award Winning B.R.A.G.Medallion Honoree
I was born in Detroit Michigan in the early 1970s. I grew up in one of Detroit Michigan's worst neighborhoods and one of its best. I've lived the life of an urban American, a university student, an exchange student in Japan, an expat in Japan, a Northwestern School of Law at Lewis & Clark law school graduate, and small recruiting business owner.
I've always been a fan of history and great stories. I like my history straight with no chasers and I like my stories to be informative and entertaining.
My personal experiences lead me try my hand at writing the memoir Our Two Societies. The memoir was well received so I've decided to try my hand at writing a series of historical fiction books as well. Stay tuned.

Blog postThis is an extremely polarizing yet extremely important question. Considering the limitations of a Quora platform I’ll do as much justice as I can to such an important question. First I need to put slavery into its proper context.
If prostitution is the world’s oldest profession slavery has to be the world’s oldest economic institution. The institution of slavery is as much a part of the human experience as illness, war, and death.

Blog postBecause not all white people have experienced whatever the hell white privilege is supposed to be.
The concept of white privilege ignores the efforts involved in obtaining the skills, values and social behaviors that make an individual successful in a free market society.
Yes, if you are white the KKK or other individual racists may not have an issue with you. However, I doubt if the white oral surgeon I saw last week stood in a line to be granted a profession. I doubt if whit3 years ago Read more -

Blog postI grew up in the Brewster projects of Detroit and later the University District where you could find some of the best homes money could buy in America.
I grew up wanting to live in these homes. Although a person can buy homes like the two above for a steal in Detroit or even a piece of crap for $500 I could not live in Detroit. I don’t care how cheap the property is I prefer not to live in fear of my life.

Blog postHow do Libertarians view discrimination? Speaking as an individual Black American Libertarian I have always wondered about the contrast between the privilege or right to discriminate and the privilege or right not to be discriminated against.
In other words, if a person belonging to the racial majority is stupid enough to choose to become a racist do I have a right to be free of their stupidity?
I believe most would agree that in private spaces a person can be as stupid as th3 years ago Read more -

Blog postPlease indulge me in covering a little bit of history before I get to the answer.
God said let there be light. Then people started showing up, love happened, illness, death, eventually the world’s oldest profession arrived, followed by the world’s oldest economic system called slavery.

Our Two Societies: Our Two Societies A Memoir
Jul 28, 2017
by
Andre Davis
$2.99
How do you live a fulfilling life? How to live your best life? How to be positive? How to be a badass? These are questions everyone thinks about. But in today’s polarized political and cultural environments, these questions are more nuanced than ever. Woke culture and anti-woke culture keep the history of racism in America at the forefront of our thoughts, with many of us wondering why social justice is wrong or why social justice is right. We have Black infants asking, “What is racism?” White adults are still asking, “Why do black people riot?” And, conservatives black and white asking, “Where do black people get the idea that everyone and everything is racist?”
Can America’s social and political problems be summed up in one word? Are our problems as simple as racial hatred? Is ignorance or insensitivity synonymous with evil? This thought-provoking novel addresses these issues and the source of these problems.
This book is not a social justice book. It is a true story about a young African American boy who grew up in a deteriorating Detroit, Michigan, in the eighties. His story continues as an adult in a vibrant Japan in the nineties. From unique experiences and people, he discovered how to live an amazing life, be positive, and be a badass despite racism. But, more importantly, he discovered two conflicting societies alive and well in America. These two societies are not based on skin color. However, racism is used to hide their existence. If you are a fan of Dr. Sowell or Walter Williams, you will love this book. If you want to be inspired and motivated, this is the book for you. Winner of the 2017 Best Indie Book Award Winner for non-fiction and the 2018 B.R.A.G. Medallion Honoree.

Niac (Ideas in Blood Book 1)

Andre Davis
$3.99
Niac is the first book in the Ideas in Blood series. The series begins just after the age of reason and at the beginning of the nineteenth century.
For the antagonist, walking alongside human history, killing, and defrauding has become unbearably mundane. The means to his ends have become as routine as the sunrise. Cursed with boredom and the belief that there is no new thing under the sun, he has no hope for a way out of his existence.
However, a chance acquaintance between the antagonist and protagonist reveals something new to the antagonist that gives him hope that there may be a way to finally end his existence. After the two of them part ways, the protagonist discovers that he has become cursed with the same immortality and all of its requirements.
The series continues with the protagonist as an antihero figuring out how to exist anonymously as an immortal murderer. Simultaneously, the antagonist continues seeking clues for a way out of his existence.
They eventually meet again as enemies. This encounter reveals that one of them can lead humankind into a dystopia and the other a utopia. Who will win the battle to save or destroy humanity?
