Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

I was raised in a deeply Christian household and spent decades actively involved in church life. Over time, through historical study, self-reflection, and understanding the legacy of slavery and colonization, I came to realize that many of the beliefs I inherited were not chosen freely but imposed on my ancestors. My shift was not sudden—it was a long, thoughtful process of questioning and unlearning.

Not at all. My departure from Christianity was not a rejection of ethics, compassion, or meaning. I believe morality and love do not require religious belief. Human dignity, empathy, and responsibility can exist independently of organized religion.

Decolonization of the mind is the process of identifying and dismantling internalized beliefs that were shaped by colonial power—about language, faith, race, culture, and worth. It is an ongoing practice of reclaiming agency over how we think, believe, and define ourselves.
Colonial powers used religion as a tool of control and cultural erasure. Understanding this history is central to the decolonization of the mind that I write and speak about.

No. My work is not about attacking individuals or their faith. It is about examining systems of power and history honestly. Many people find comfort in religion, and I respect that. My focus is on choice, awareness, and intellectual freedom.

Alike Regardless focused on human unity and love as tools for healing division. At the time, I still framed these ideas through a religious lens. Decolonization of the Mind represents the next stage of my intellectual journey—moving from unity rooted in belief to unity rooted in shared humanity and historical truth.
Haiti is the first Black republic and a symbol of resistance against colonial domination. Yet it continues to suffer from political, economic, and cultural consequences of colonialism. My work honors Haiti’s revolutionary legacy while using its history as a lens to examine global systems of power and control.
This work is for anyone willing to question inherited narratives—whether they are Black, African-descended, Indigenous, or from any background affected by colonial history. It is also for readers who value critical thinking, self-examination, and the courage to evolve.
