Broken Chains presents a poetic narrative that reflects upon an America whose racial legacy stands in stark contrast to its espoused promise, principles and values. Broken Chains turns a lens on injustice and inequality reaching across America's long arc of racial laws and cultural biases. At its core, Broken Chains argues that America's racial fault line is anchored in enslavement's legacy of greed, hatred, and disenfranchisement. As a result of America's inability to come to grips with race and racism, democracy's past, present, and perhaps its future will continue to fall short of its potential. Broken Chains suggests that redemption from the faults and failures of the past is only possible when truth and justice is elevated to confront those forces that would seek to deny the bounty of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness - equally to all.
