Yet you still hate me’ is inspired by a dream the Author had about Martin Luther king Jr. and Mahatma Gandhi. This dream, in which they looked worried, was followed by another a year later, in which three girls presented themselves to the author and took him to a place to dig up dirt.

So hopefully one day, with understanding and respect toward each other we could change the world,” says Rodney.Rodney began to write immediately, and the result was the poem, which is now accompanied by hand drawn pictures colored by the author. On receiving encouragement from his friends, the poem has now been published. As a fan of history and specially the Renaissance era, Rodney’s art follows expressionism as well as abstract art. As a self-taught artist, he has learnt different ways to use the concepts of colors, waves and cells, and his work contains hidden messages for the viewers to discover and decode. As a published author of nine books in the last five years and father of a four year old girl, Rodney has a Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice
