Sensible is a fast-moving, critical analysis of American society. Brace yourself for the uncomfortable truths that will show you the nature of your own captivity.

About the Author

I am a man who was born to an under-educated mother and an illiterate, immigrant father who legally came to the United States from Jamaica many decades in the past. The Dinnall family is a proud family that experienced extreme wealth long before I was born, but a series of mishandlings by my grandfather and his brother squandered the fortune they received after my great-grandfather's passing; a fortune which resulted from an untold series of acquisitions from the former slave masters. As a consequence, I was born into poverty within the United States.

In 2020, the year in which everything fell apart, things actually came together for me, apart from losing my dear mother. One of those things was learning the true origin of my name. There was a Mr. Tappah, who was a black man in Porus, Manchester, Jamaica who was a status symbol of hope for the newly-freed slaves. The British were scheming to give the Jamaicans their freedom; however, possess all the land and extort their labor in fact, rather than in name. Mr. Tappah gave the slaves hope that they might Resist. It was my grandmother, my father's mother, who told me the story in detail much sharper than one would Reasonably expect from someone who was 101 years old at the time. With all of the circumstances working against me, what a Stroke of Luck that I would stumble across a message like this.
