I wrote a book two years ago Corruption In Americas Paradise, its a free read on the Internet. I wrote the book because just after our second season in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands we began to get hate mail and phone calls.

Dirty tricks and sophisticated 100-year plans predicted in my corruption book that have come to fruition in St. John. Half of all business ventures fail in the first year. In 1988 I wrote an entrepreneur training program that scored more points than the grant writers at Cal State L.A. School of business.

I believe the strategy regarding my business The Ninth Life Fine Art Gallery was to do nothing the first year. They invited me to join the board of The St. Thomas, St. John Arts Council. It wasnt until after my first full year on the arts council my worst fears were confirmed, no Native Caribbean Born Artists. I confronted them at the opening 2003 board meeting and they took a vote and fired me.

We had to take into consideration at that time that there were artists joining our organization to cause us harm. These very artist have posted a web site claiming they cant get back their art. When The Virgin Island Police Department called, I told them to have the shipper come for the art. Any artists having artwork in my closed gallery has been notified and their artwork has not been sold.

There was one piece of lost artwork, the artist has been notified by me, with my deepest apology.

There is an un-named artists comment on the web site trying to blackmail me, I know her, we have a photo of her at her solo show at The Ninth Life Fine Art Gallery, with a big smile on her face.

I dont think I would be smiling if 2/3 of my artwork was damaged.

The hate E-Mail from the past board member and officer of the St. Thomas St. John Arts Council. The hate phone call another former board member and officer of The St. Thomas St. John Arts Council. These ladies are prominent in The Virgin Island community and I have used their real names in Corruption In Americas Paradise.

Since the information regarding these pillars of the community is true, they cannot sue but them and their circle of friends can hack my web site and my search engine position on Google. This information is confirmed by my web host THMedia.net, the FBI and The U.S. Virgin Island Department of Justice.

What would you do if you had all the power and someone was willing to tell the truth about you and your collaborators in a book published to the Internet for almost three years?

Now black women are being raped on St.John, Virgin Islands, and black families just building on St.John are the victims of arson. Also, there is a communications monopoly in The Virgin Islands.

The Wall Street Journal calls corruption the major problem in The Virgin Islands.
