Can You Really Survive In America?

Is the American Dream just an illusion? Bayo, an outsider with a sharp mind, is thrust into the complex reality of American life. Here, ideals clash with harsh realities, and survival hinges on navigating a world of power struggles and hidden agendas. Bayo's perspective challenges the status quo, forcing him to confront societal injustices and question the very essence of the American Dream. Will his fight for eternal freedom shield him or lead him down a dangerous path? =================== Disclaimer This story is a blend of history and imagination. While I've approached the time period of 1947-1950s with respect, I've also taken creative liberties to craft a compelling narrative. Names, actions, and even some cultural references are fictionalized for storytelling purposes. Think of it as a tribute to Yoruba culture, not a strict historical account. My aim is to spark interest and understanding, not mislead.

Èsù materialized in a shimmer of candlelight, his presence filling the small room. His lips curled into a mischievous grin as he regarded Bayo. "Well, well," he drawled, his voice carrying an otherworldly echo. "If it isn't my favorite supplicant. What brings you calling this fine evening?"

Bayo's eyes narrowed, his jaw tightening. He opened his mouth to speak, but Èsù cut him off with a theatrical wave of his hand.

"Let me guess," the orisha continued, his eyes twinkling with barely suppressed laughter. "Another crisis? Another plea for divine intervention? Oh, the trials and tribulations of mortality!"
