Thank you to NetGalley and Center Street Publishing for allowing me to read this ARC version of Created Equal by Ben Carson. My thoughts are my own. Created Equal released May 17, 2022.

I first heard about Ben Carson several years back. I don’t exactly remember when, but it was around the time he was running for president. As one would expect, his name became known around the country, and what an enigma the left-facing media found him: an African American conservative, running as a conservative Republican.

I love his story. His is the true American Dream ideal, but more importantly, his speaks to the incredible blessings of God, granted to a man who has committed to following after Him.

The woke mob has moved to cancel anyone who speaks out against their divisive agenda. It’s safe to say that they will do the same for Dr. Carson’s book Created Equal because he moves to expose the nefarious intentions of politicians who have and continue to look to control the narrative and the masses.

Dr. Carson knows firsthand about discrimination and prejudice, just as he knows first hand the importance of becoming who God wants you to be and not allowing anyone to tell him otherwise. He knows the value of hard work and of creating a legacy. He is a role model to all of what you can do and who you can become.

In a generation that looks to cancel anyone who does not uphold and pander to the control of woke-ism, Dr. Carson’s book makes it clear who is at the helm of these radical ideals and how to step outside of the matrix.

While Created Equal speaks largely to the issue of race and discrimination in America, I think its wisdom is applicable to everyone looking to discover the way forward and how to return to Judeo-Christian values, to step outside of the predictable script and to unite as one people.

Time and again, Dr. Carson returns the reader to the fact that we are created in God’s image and are to be treated with dignity as one of God’s creatures.

It’s time we take back the narrative and live the lives God intended us to live.

Highly recommended.

This is a review for Created Equal by Dr. Ben Carson. This is a book that everyone should read right now because of what is going on in our country right now. Dr. Carson is an African American, and he felt the need to write a book about his experiences as an African American man growing up in both Detroit and Chicago, and then going on to college after which he became a top brain surgeon. He has worked in government also, and has seen his beloved America being torn apart by lies and deception, so he did something about it. He tells the truth, and this book is a result. He wants to see all races who were created equal, be treated equal, because that is what our founding fathers wanted, and our Heavenly Father want! Hopefully through this book there will be unity! I know it helped me!!

In his book Dr. Carson talks straight about many of the topics facing our nation today, including those that are trying to tear our nation apart. Here are the topics he discusses in his book:
CHAPTER 1 No One Is Born a Racist
CHAPTER 2 How We Look at Race CHAPTER
3 The History of Slavery and Racism in America
CHAPTER 4 Guilt and Victimhood Surrounding Race
CHAPTER 5 Critical Race Theory and the 1619 Project
CHAPTER 6 The George Floyd Turning Point
CHAPTER 7 Media and Big Tech
CHAPTER 8 Does Systemic Racism Exist in America?
CHAPTER 9 Judeo-Christian Values and Racism
CHAPTER 10 Is It Racism or Classism?
CHAPTER 11 Education, the Great Equalizer
CHAPTER 12 The Path Forward

I really loved this book because Dr. Carson was honest about the problems we do have in this country, but he tells the truth about them from his experience, and then gives us solutions to those problems. Most left wing people point out the problems from their agenda, but then offer no solutions, but Dr. Carson does.

This book opened my eyes in a deeper way to those problems, but Dr. Carson wasn't shouting for shutting down our institutions because he respects our Constitution and our laws & government; no, he talks about the message of Dr.Martin Luther King, which is we are all created equal, and should not be judged according to our skin color, but by our character. Also he is against Critical Race Theory which tells white people we are oppressors, and minorities that they are oppressed. This only tears our nation apart! Dr. Carson wants to bring our nation together, as did Dr. King! This book also exposes the lies, shares true history, and shows us how to bring unity amongst all Americans which are a nation of many races, and the change starts with us as individuals and how we treat each other!!! So I believe this is one of the most important books I have read, and I rate it 5/5! Please take time to read it!

I absolutely love Ben Carson and this book really proved why. Dr. Ben Carson has a way of delivering the truth without ever crossing the line between honest and brutal. I will definitely be needing this as a physical copy!
