I never intended to write this book until I read about an incident that occurred in 2012. It was about a black boy in Florida being shot and killed by a white neighborhood watchman. It spawned the phrase "black lives matter". For years I kept hearing that phrase. Then a couple of years ago I decided to write a comprehensive A to Z book about whose lives matter in this world - not just the blacks. I wanted to enlighten people that everyone you know or meet is a life that matters no matter who you are.
