Every civilisation runs on three invisible systems: banking, religion, and society. Together they generate the visible outcomes of goods, value, and law. But when poisoned by falsehoods, those systems become tools of exploitation. For centuries, the so-called Curse of Ham-a distorted biblical story-has served as the hidden theology of anti-Blackness. It justified the Arab slave trade, the transatlantic trade, and the world system that still codes Africa as servant and Blackness as subordinate. Banks Value Goods exposes how this curse infiltrated the engines of civilisation and still shapes today's global order. But it also shows how the curse can be broken. The book sets out a bold blueprint for reparatory justice through an IC3 Black sovereign entity-a new international framework to reclaim goods, restore value, and enforce law for IC3 Black and IC6 Mixed-Black peoples worldwide. Written by Derrick Lynch (John Canoe / Mr IC3), a street performer, community organiser, and investigator of Britain's race codes, this is more than history. It is manifesto, investigation, and call to action. The curse was built through silence. It will be broken through truth, memory, and justice.
