About the Book
To form an opinion you may never escape
A stereotype spit in your ear
Makes you develop an unsubstantiated fear
A phobia of people, places, and things
You develop prejudices you can’t even see
15 seconds is all you need
To reach out your hand and understand me
Not that I’m black, Hispanic, White, or Asian
But that you and I are part of a bigger nation
15 seconds is what can make
An everlasting friendship or the start of hate
15 Seconds is the journey of Sean, the son of a white supremist in Louisiana and his journey from hate to love. After beating a black youth to death, Sean is sentenced to a year of community service in Africa. Through his time there, and the people he meets, he learns of forgiveness, tolerence, and love. His is a story of redemption and proof that any 15 seconds can change a life forever.
