This is Pastor Donnie Williams’ story, as well as guidebook to help the reader discover and eliminate the source of negative thoughts and actions, which lead to a conscious feeling of separation from others, from God, and eventually from ourselves. Conquest over Hatred is the story of a black child, angered by being raised in abject poverty and prejudice in the Deep South in the 1950s, becomes a World Karate Champion. Abandoned at birth by his father, ten-year-old Williams experiences the complexity of racial relationships when his mother marries an itinerant white preacher. Succumbing to the pressure of church elders, the family relocates to California where Williams feels increasingly alienated from and angry toward white society. After joining a racist gang and dropping out of school, he enlists in the military and is shipped to Vietnam where he begins training in karate. By the time he is discharged, he has become a full-blown racist obsessed with one burning desire--to become the deadliest karate practitioner in the world. In 1977, an exhausted and out-of-shape Williams barely survives a full day of competition. Minutes before the championship match, Williams, injured and overwhelmed by despair, kneels in front of a toilet at the Long Beach Sports Arena and prays to God for help. Today Donnie Williams is a radically transformed man, one who has moved from negative thoughts and actions to one who feels connected to himself, to God, and to the human race. Conquest over Hatred offers compelling answers as to how this transformation came about for him. 176 pages with photos.
