"How They Got You to Call Yourself the N-Word" is a transformative exploration into the depths of psychological manipulation and systemic control embedded in Black identity. Inspired by the Willie Lynch letter, Cameron A Bailey Sr unravels the layers of mental slavery that persist today, revealing how racial division, self-hatred, and internalized oppression are active forces in the modern world.

This book serves as both a mirror and a beacon, reflecting the painful truths of how a people have been conditioned to degrade themselves, often unknowingly perpetuating the same mental chains that once subjugated their ancestors. It poses critical questions: Why are words that once shackled minds now embraced as terms of endearment? How did a system of division—rooted in fear, distrust, and envy—evolve into cultural norms defining self-identity in Black communities today?

Bailey delves into the realities behind mass incarceration, fractured families, and economic disparity, revealing them as modern manifestations of the same psychological warfare. Each chapter challenges readers to confront their understanding of race, history, and freedom. Have we truly broken free, or are we still ensnared in a centuries-old system of control?

Using the Willie Lynch letter as a foundation, Bailey draws parallels between the past and present, compelling readers to question everything they thought they knew about racial identity and liberation. This book is a wake-up call for those ready to break the cycle, seeking to understand the profound roots of division—and what it takes to finally be free.
