    As the issue of slavery roiled the country, few people became as controversial or consequential as Nat Turner, who was one of millions of slaves in the South before the Civil War but ultimately led the nation’s most notorious slave uprising. In August 1831, Turner led a rebellion that terrorized Virginia for several days, killing dozens of whites and freeing slaves as his band moved from plantation to plantation. The Richmond Enquirer reported, “A fanatic preacher by the name of Nat Turner (Gen. Nat Turner) who had been taught to read and write, and permitted to go about preaching in the country, was at the bottom of this infernal brigandage. He was artful, impudent and vindicative, without any cause or provocation, that could be assigned.” Even after the uprising was put down, Turner evaded capture for a few months, and after he was captured, his “confessions” were taken down and published before he was executed. Virginia would put a total of 56 slaves to death for the uprising. 
    While Turner’s rebellion remains famous today, a far larger uprising took place a generation earlier. In January 1811, hundreds of slaves in Louisiana attempted to make a new beginning for themselves or die trying. Armed with muskets, cane knives, and axes, and wearing stolen United States militia uniforms, they set out to conquer the city of New Orleans. The goal was to establish a free republic where slavery was outlawed and blacks had control over their own lives. Understandably discontented with their status and no longer willing to accept it, they were ready to engage in extreme violence to win their freedom, fully aware that death would be the only alternative.  
    The fallout from John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry was intense. In the South, conspiracy theories ran wild about who had supported the raid, and Brown’s raid has often been considered one of the main precursors to the Civil War.

    This audiobook is an update to Reality Prism: A Raven Thriller, released by Flamingo Audiobooks. The focus of our book is to describe and explain the myriad of attacks on our Western Culture in general and the United States as the key target and last bastion of freedom. Mind War is the use of sophisticated deception to deceive an enemy, and to plant false images in his mind to allow advantage. It is a military tactic.Mindless War is a phrase that we’ve coined to describe the methods and controls being used destructively by Globalists, the New World Order, China, the Radical Left, and others, to replace the “old order” of countries, independent nation states, with a world of total control by independent, unaccountable elites. Groups like the World Economic Forum and the UN have been working on this for decades.Yes, this is the “Great Reset.” The goals are documented in UN Agenda 2030, and other such documents. That is the subject of our book Reality Prism. The goal of Mind War is to instill fear in a society! “Fear is the Mind Killer.” It drives the loss of judgment. False reality can be used to cause insane, self-destructive behavior.In the past, genocides and tyranny came from force. As Mao demonstrated, “From the barrel of a gun.” Or, as Hitler showed, from military conquest and death camps. Mind War is a much more effective tactic.Recent events show its success in getting Americans to surrender our notions of exceptionalism and all men (and women) of being equal. Our God-Given Freedoms—from the right to assemble, free speech, fair trials, innocent until proven guilty, honest elections, freedom of worship, the rule of law, and, of course, at the end, the right to bear arms—are all slipping away.
