by Heat Anthony, J.P. Watkins

7777: THE DYNAMIC LIFE OF RICHARD DENT Surviving the Seven Deadly Sins All die, few live! Richard Dent truly has lived a dynamic life. This unconventional icon, once a UAW autoworker, a professional gentlemen of leisure, and drug addict is now a youth mentor, an investor, an entrepreneur, a loving father, and a devout Muslim. After leading a precarious lifestyle, Richard Dent has returned to his spiritual roots, overcome tremendous adversity, and helps others access the path of prosperity. His life story allows readers to travel through several turbulent decades with him, in which he rises from the ashes of disparity and lands on the runway of redemption. These pages share his wholesome childhood upbringing, his racial snares during his tenure in the military, his international exploits, his subtle slide into street life, his joyful family-life, his tragic loss of his young lovely wife, having to raise his sons without their mother, his deadly dance with dealing drugs, slipping into the dungeon of drug addiction, and seeing the American dream nearly slip through his fingers and how he survived envy, greed, sloth, lust, gluttony, pride, and wrath—The Seven Deadly Sins. This is no typical memoir or cautionary tale, but this is story of both tragedy and triumph. This story illustrates how stumbling blocks can become stepping stones. This is an American, an inner-city, a historical, and a family story. It is a story that every minority or person affected by drugs or any affliction should read. This is the perspective seldom heard, but a story our society desperately needs to hear. Thus, this is a story for everyone. Come see, how Richard Dent survived the Seven Deadly Sins.
