8"Escaping the Dogs of Mississippi" is a first-hand account of the entrenched racism, segregation, even hatred experienced by the author, Dewitt Brown, which were so prevalent in the deep South, but were indeed not limited by geography, but driven by the sinful nature of men everywhere. Yes, these were the two-legged dogs, both Black and White, who abused and misused any real or self-imposed advantages they had over others to their benefit and to other's dismay. Lastly, the book describes an escape from oneself, the inner-dog, to a resting place that only Jesus Christ could provide.
