The boy peopled the garden with male phantoms that rose from his ejaculations. This angered God, who was getting on in years. He decided it endangered his position as CREATOR.

But some of Adam's phantoms refused to let God near them under any pretext.

For many years Madam Walker was just a little footnote in history. As a woman who made haircare products, she was really consigned to something trivial.
