His position in public services further afforded him the opportunity to meet with the underrepresented community in numerous working poor areas, expanding his understanding of the realities of marginalized groups in America.

He led corporate teams in North America, Beijing, Taiwan, South Korea, Thailand, Japan, Brazil, and Japan. Over the years, exposure to different cultures inspired him and made him recognize how fractured the American community is compared to others. It was at this juncture that he began to reconsider his political beliefs and created his manifesto to alter the narrative of Black people.

Bryant’s unique perspective and personal experiences motivated him to write African American Reparations – a book that explores themes of African American identity, reparations, and resilience. He utilized his formal education in the sciences and business and his practical experiences to develop an approach to leadership, organization, and improvement. In his book, he documents his ideas on how African Americans can transcend their position, encouraging a shift from the victim mentality to empowerment.

While Bryant leaves it up to the reader to determine the legitimacy and value of his white paper, he emphasizes that effective reparations will remain an unfulfilled dream unless African Americans embrace responsibility and accountability for their own self-determination.
