Dark Angels (1998) is a black action, drama movie written, produced, and directed by David Wadley (The Price Bandit), available on multiple streaming services. DARK ANGELS Angela is a pregnant woman trapped in an abusive marriage. Amidst a world filled with sex, drugs, money, and power, violence is an ever-present threat. Set on the mean streets of Atlanta, the expectant mother discovers that only spiritual awareness and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse can help her escape the madness. Dark Angels (1998) was the first feature film released in what eventually became known as the Hard Faith film genre. David Wadley, a pioneering African American filmmaker, ignored conventional Hollywood storytelling and broke new ground as the writer, producer, and director of Dark Angels, the first faith-based gangsta film. The movie is available on multiple streaming platforms. Official Trailer Trailer #2 Trailer #3 Trailer #4 Dark Angels cemented its place in cinematic history as the first Hard Faith movie. It was followed by notable additions to the genre, including Shooting Heroin (2020), written and directed by Spencer T. Folmar, and The Affair (2023), directed by Dennis L. Reed II. Elisha Maldonado of the New York Post describes the relevance of Hard Faith movies in this way: "Faith is hard. Sometimes faith is messy. And the beauty of our redemption story is that God meets us in our brokenness and in our frailty and in our sweariness. It's his humanity. If we, as humans, can't meet our fellow humans in our shared mess, what are we doing? And if a hot damn or a good old f-bomb moves us closer to meeting others where they are, I swear, it's worth it." David Wadley, aka The Price Bandit, is an affiliate partner with companies in the online staffing, finance, grocery retail, women's clothing, auto, and real estate industries. Wadley is the author of the popular short essay, All Women Are Beautiful and he has also produced hundreds of music videos showcasing old school remixes and R&B slow jams as The Price Bandit on YouTube . Wadley has worked for Warner Bros. Studios, Sony Pictures, MGM Studios and is a member of the Motion Picture Editors Guild, IATSE Local 700. He was the Supervising Sound Editor on Soul Plane (2004) and a Production Assistant on the Hollywood sets of movies produced by Steven Spielberg, Spike Lee, Robert De Niro, and Melvin Van Peebles. Wadley was acknowledged with "Special Thanks" in the closing credits of The Invisible War (2012). Two days after watching this Academy Award-nominated documentary, former CIA Director and U.S. Secretary of Defense, Leon E. Panetta, directed military commanders to hand over all sexual assault investigations to a higher-ranking colonel and announced that each branch of the United States Armed Forces would establish a Special Victims Unit. "What David has done with Dark Angels is the most difficult path to take because he's done it all himself from scratch. Not only did he write the script and develop the characters, he's [secured] the financing, directed it, [etc.] To do something like that and pull it off takes tremendous tenacity." Preston L. Holmes, Producer Till, Girls Trip, Panther, Hustle & Flow, Malcolm X, Juice, Ne w Ja ck City The Atlanta Tribune Je Nie Fleming (ACRIMONY, LAW & ORDER) portrays Angela. Throughout Angela's dream sequences, character names hint at the story's subtext, influenced by the Crusades of the Middle Ages. Charlemagne, whose foreign conquests and internal reforms helped define Western Europe between 760 and 813, has been redeveloped as an African American funeral director, Charles Maine, portrayed by veteran Baltimore stage actor Louis B. Murray. (HOMICIDE, HOUSE OF CARDS). Maine operates a family-owned funeral home in a modern-day inner-city neighborhood. His able assistant and sidekick, Rodrigo Bivar, is played by Roberto Gutierrez. While casting DARK ANGELS, Wadley discovered Gutierrez in 1992 when he was a 19-year-old kung fu student at a New York martial arts school. Inspired by his experience working on his first feature film, Gutierrez later became one of Hollywood's top stunt coordinators/stuntmen (BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER, HALLOWEEN KILLS, THE SUICIDE SQUAD, THOR: THE DARK WORLD, THE DARK KNIGHT RISES, INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL). In DARK ANGELS, Gutierrez is a martial artist extraordinaire whose character is named after Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar - El Cid, the military general who altered European military history between 1087 and 1099. The names of Angela and Demond (angel and demon) and other characters' names, such as Grace, Pope, Saxon, Lombard, and Tassilo, add to the film's Crusades-related theme. In the opening of Angela's dream segments, Maine has had enough of the senseless drug-related violence that has plagued his neighborhood for far too long. Angela's dreams culminate with the wrath of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse from the Book of Revelation, who provide a terrifying climax during the film's final moments. Inside the world of DARK ANGELS, there are no decisive winners in a war between judgmental heroes and ambitious villains. The only true superhero is God. To better understand Dark Angels (1998), one must consider the times as they were when it was created. Sheila Frazier (SUPER FLY, THREE THE HARD WAY) read David Wadley's first screenplay, which he wrote as a Morehouse College freshman in a screenwriting course. Frazier and Wadley met in Los Angeles at Richard Pryor's Indigo Productions on the Columbia Pictures studio lot when Wadley was 19 years old. Pryor had appointed NFL legend, Jim Brown, as the president of the film production company that hired Frazier as a story editor. Wadley disguised himself as a flower delivery man to sneak onto the historic studio lot undetected. Frazier was so impressed with his ingenuity and the box of red roses Wadley gave her, which were used to conceal the script from the studio's security guards, that she stopped what she was doing to sit down and read the entire screenplay. Frazier then invited Wadley into her office and gave him pointers on his script while encouraging him to pursue his career goal of becoming a filmmaker. The screenplay she read that day would later become DARK ANGELS. Wadley further developed the screenplay for DARK ANGELS between 1984-1990 while residing in his Harlem apartment on 147th Street and St. Nicholas Avenue during the height of the crack cocaine epidemic. This turbulent period in New York history saw Paul Castellano, the American crime boss who succeeded Carlo Gambino as head of the Gambino crime family, assassinated in an unsanctioned hit led by John Gotti on December 16, 1985, outside of Sparks Steak House on East 46th Street. Gotti, going against his predecessors firm rule of staying out of the cocaine business, opened up the New York mafia to cocaine trafficking, a 41 billion dollar business with routes leading from Mexico to Detroit and Columbia to Miami. Wadley interned with Congressman Charles Rangel representing Harlem's 13th district as Ronald Reagan sat in the White House, hiring over 1000 additional FBI agents in his first term to investigate mafia activity centered in New York City, assisted by then New York Governor Mario Cuomo and United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Rudy Giuliani. At the same time, a Brooklyn minister named Al Sharpton was introduced to the American public as he protested against the Bernhard Goetz subway shootings and racial attacks in Howard Beach and Bensonhurst. Jesse Jackson ran for President of the United States in 1984 and 1988, introducing American voters to the idea of electing a black chief executive to lead the nation. Jesse Jackson and David Wadley The introduction of crack raised the stakes in gang activity, and by the mid-1980s, the drug world's murder rate increased by over 50%. This sparked a new migration of Crips and Bloods spreading out over the entire country in search of new markets outside South Central, Los Angeles. Ice-T, influenced by Philadelphia rapper Schoolly D's "P.S.K. What Does It Mean?" released in 1985, pioneered a hip hop sub-genre that became known as gangster rap. Wadley received death threats from a New York drug dealer who was murdered at the close of the decade. Though their interactions were usually disagreeable, Wadley gave the deceased dealer's chosen specialty (robbing rival drug dealers) to the antihero/protagonist when he wrote the screenplay for DARK ANGELS. Shot entirely in Atlanta on a limited budget in the 1990s, DARK ANGELS was completed over a period of five years, thanks to the perseverance of over 150 dedicated crew members and actors working for little or no salary. Wadley encouraged numerous Atlanta business owners and managers to donate their facilities for set locations, staging areas, and post-production services. The stark reality of Atlanta's gritty streets is captured on 35mm black and white film, juxtaposed against the warmer scenes of Angela's dreams photographed on a vibrant color stock by veteran cinematographer Edwin Myers (ROBOCOP 3, INVASION U.S.A.). This effective storytelling technique was inspired by the MGM classic THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939). In THE WIZARD OF OZ, actors play dual roles in the film's real-world (black and white) and dream world (color) segments. The surreal setting of the film is augmented by the haunting classical orchestral soundtrack created by composer Damon Stout, who conducted a 65-piece orchestra for his original composition, "Theme from Dark Angels." The film also benefited from the editing talents of Kevin Lindstrom (WHAT'S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT, BOOMERANG, THE KARATE KID III, DEEP COVER, THE FIVE HEARTBEATS) and the detailed artistry of costume designer Donna O'Neal (THOR: RAGNAROK, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE III, 8 MILE, PLANET OF THE APES). DARK ANGELS was released and distributed in the United States by Maverick Entertainment in 1998. The film's spiritual theme also translated well to the international film market, opening DARK ANGELS up to distribution in Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia, and South America. A.J. "Ezal" Johnson Anthony (A.J.) Johnson (February 1, 1966 – September 6, 2021) died at a Los Angeles County hospital after being found unresponsive in a store. He was an American actor and comedian best known for his role as Ezal in the feature film FRIDAY. According to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner, Johnson died from "chronic ethanol use," or alcohol abuse. The autopsy report showed Johnson was going through a multi-system organ failure and that he had tested positive for COVID-19. The case detail report also notes there were no other causes of death, and the manner of death is listed as "natural." Johnson co-starred in Wadley's DARK ANGELS . Johnson and Wadley first worked together on PANTHER (1995), featuring Kadeem Hardison, Bokeem Woodbine, Angela Bassett, Chris Rock and others. PANTHER was produced by Preston L. Holmes, Robert De Niro and black cinema pioneer Melvin Van Peebles, who died two weeks after Johnson. Once PANTHER wrapped, Johnson and Wadley were offered positions on Ice Cube's upcoming Los Angeles project, FRIDAY, which Johnson accepted. Wadley took an alternative offer to work on a film produced by Steven Spielberg scheduled to shoot in New York simultaneously. Even though Johnson and Wadley did not work together on FRIDAY, they reunited several years later on DARK ANGELS . _________________ OneManGang 2 days ago Yo how do I find this whole movie been 👀 for over 25 years The Price Bandit 1 day ago I will post the entire movie on Saturday, September 25, 2021...Remastered with many new sound effects and other technological updates...thank you for your interest - David.

WOMEN INVESTING | CNBC Why Watching CNBC Every Day Strengthens Your Investing Skills Stock Soul videos featuring Leslie Picker Stream CNBC Leslie Picker CNBC Senior Finance & Banking Reporter Friend of The Price Bandit Community on LinkedIn One of the most powerful habits a new investor can build is watching CNBC every day. Whether you watch on TV, YouTube clips, the CNBC website, or through a streaming service, the goal is the same: stay aware of what the market is doing in real time. Even fifteen to twenty minutes a day can dramatically improve your knowledge, confidence, and decision-making. Talia Kaplan CNBC Video Producer Friend of The Price Bandit Community on LinkedIn CNBC Anchors and Reporters Pia Singh Reporter at CNBC Friend of The Price Bandit Community on LinkedIn Why CNBC Matters for Beginners Reem Nasr Social News Producer at CNBC Friend of The Price Bandit Community on LinkedIn The stock market moves fast. Prices change based on company earnings, technology updates, government decisions, interest rates, global news, and new trends. CNBC reports these changes as they happen. This means you get the same information that professional investors, Wall Street analysts, and financial advisors receive. When you follow the market regularly, you begin to understand: which companies are rising or falling why certain industries are growing how investors react to news which experts believe certain stocks have long-term potential how major events affect your portfolio This daily exposure slowly builds your financial intelligence. Real-Time Information = Better Decisions Most new investors make mistakes because they guess. Watching CNBC replaces guessing with knowledge. You hear earnings updates directly from CEOs. You learn when AI, technology, pharmaceuticals, or energy companies report strong or weak results. You understand why prices are moving before social media reacts. When you know what is happening, you can invest with logic instead of emotion. Leslie Josephs Airline Reporter at CNBC Friend of The Price Bandit Community on LinkedIn Devan Burris Producer CNBC Digital Video Friend of The Price Bandit Community on LinkedIn How CNBC Helps You Invest for Profit You don’t have to follow every suggestion, but hearing expert reasoning helps you think more clearly about your own decisions. CNBC as a Learning Tool Sesame Street helped millions of Americans learn basic reading and math simply by watching every day. It turned complicated ideas into simple lessons. Over time, children grew smarter without realizing they were “studying.” CNBC plays a similar role for investors. By watching daily: market vocabulary becomes natural trends become familiar news becomes easier to understand patterns become clearer Just like Sesame Street built basic skills through repetition, CNBC builds financial confidence through constant exposure. CNBC analysts regularly: break down stock performance highlight companies with strong earnings explain long-term trends warn about risky sectors introduce new investing opportunities teach strategies used by professionals A Simple Daily Habit That Makes a Big Difference You don’t need to watch all day.

Watching CNBC daily is like attending a free financial class taught by experts. It keeps you informed, teaches you how professional investors think, and helps you avoid costly mistakes. For new investors, it is one of the most valuable tools available—simple, accessible, and powerful.

A psychologically sharp novel exploring masculinity, envy, and the dangerous fantasies of escape in a globalized, digital world. About the Book Passport Bro is a high-stakes political suspense thriller and contemporary Black love story about power, accountability, and what happens when a Black woman refuses to shrink. Nubia Johnson is a brilliant, principled Black woman working as an immigration case officer in Los Angeles. She believes in justice—even when the system bends under politics and profit. But when she uncovers altered deportation files, erased children, and a hidden detention pipeline designed to generate revenue instead of protection, Nubia makes a decision that changes everything: she preserves the truth. That choice turns her into the most hunted woman in America. Framed as a rogue federal employee and labeled a Tier One domestic extremist, Nubia transforms overnight from public servant to symbol. As protests erupt across Los Angeles and private militia units deploy to silence her, what begins as whistleblowing escalates into a public execution attempt—and a national reckoning. At her side is Cush Bernard, her boyfriend and a self-proclaimed “passport bro” who once chased validation overseas while neglecting commitment at home. A habitual cheater masking insecurity with charm, Cush must confront his ego, infidelity, and emotional immaturity. Loving a strong Black woman under fire demands growth. While Nubia battles systemic corruption and narrative manipulation, Cush battles himself—learning that real manhood requires loyalty, discipline, and accountability. When violence shatters their inner cir cle and powerful forces move to crush the uprising, Nubia and her allies flee toward Atlanta carrying encrypted evidence capable of dismantling an empire. But exposure is only the beginning. Passport Bro is Part 2 of The AI Revolution: African American Trilogy , which includes Book 1, The AI Revolution Will Not Be Televised , and concludes with Book 3, Bulls, Bears, and Bad Bitches . In a country built on narrative control, Nubia Johnson chose to speak. Now the nation must decide whether she is a threat—or the truth. What Does This Novel Explore Black female leadership under fire — what happens when a principled Black woman becomes the face of resistance in a nation that fears her voice. Government corruption and narrative control — how power manipulates data, media, and public perception to silence truth. Masculinity in transition — a “passport bro” confronting ego, infidelity, and emotional immaturity while learning accountability and growth. Black love under pressure — loyalty, partnership, and healing tested by violence, surveillance, and public scrutiny. Community uprising and collective power — how ordinary people become a movement when silence is no longer an option. Passport Bro explores the weaponization of technology and data in modern America, revealing how algorithms, federal databases, and privatized enforcement systems quietly determine who gets protection and who gets erased. It examines the emotional cost of becoming a symbol—especially for a Black woman forced to carry a movement while grieving, hunted, and still human. The novel confronts the tension between identity and perception, asking who gets to define truth in an age of narrative control. It also digs into masculinity in transition, challenging ego-driven relationship patterns and exploring what real accountability, loyalty, and growth look like under pressure. At its core, the story interrogates power, profit, and the hidden alliances between government institutions and corporate interests—while honoring community, resilience, and the courage it takes to speak when silence would be safer. Who This Book Is For Black women readers who want to see a strong, complex Black female lead navigating power, love, and public pressure without shrinking.

A high-stakes thriller where artificial intelligence, election sabotage, and Black women’s political power collide. About the Book Kamala 2028 is a gripping, high-energy blend of urban fiction, political thriller, and Afrofuturist suspense that explores what happens when artificial intelligence, misinformation, and election sabotage collide with the power of Black community organizing. Set across Oakland, San Francisco, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Detroit, Milwaukee, Houston, Charlotte, and Washington, D.C. , the novel follows Mika Johnson , a Bay Area activist whose grandmother’s ties to the original Black Panther Party become the blueprint for resisting a dangerous new threat during the 2028 U.S. presidential election. As Kamala Harris—born in Oakland and shaped by the Bay Area’s legacy of activism and innovation—prepares for the most consequential campaign of her career , a ruthless technologist deploys an advanced AI-driven misinformation system designed to fracture public trust, manipulate emotion, and suppress Black voter turnout. The system ignites fear, confusion, and division across America’s most influential Black cities, pushing the nation toward chaos. The Threat: AI as Emotional Warfare At the center of the crisis is an AI-powered emotional manipulation system capable of spreading false narratives at scale, hijacking public perception, and destabilizing entire communities in real time. As digital chaos spreads and democracy teeters, Mika is drawn into a battle far larger than herself—one that blends technology, culture, history, and grassroots resistance. Sisters Forward: Power in Collective Action Mika joins forces with Sisters Forward , a brilliant, fearless coalition of Black women activists, technologists, and strategists. Together, they combine: AI literacy and digital defense Grassroots organizing and cultural intelligence Faith leadership, barbershop diplomacy, and auntie networks Intergenerational wisdom and modern tech strategy Mika becomes the central “node”—the one leader capable of bridging Bay Area revolutionary history and Silicon Valley innovation , past and future, community and code. As the AI adapts and targets her personally—attacking her reputation, family, and city—Mika must rise into leadership she never sought, fighting not only for truth, but for the soul of democracy. What This Novel Explores AI-generated misinformation and election sabotage Black women as the backbone of American democracy Voting rights and digital manipulation Afrofuturism rooted in real political history Community healing in the face of technological warfare This is a story about resilience, strategy, and collective power in the age of algorithms. Why Kamala 2028 Matters In an era where algorithms attempt to control truth, Kamala 2028 asks an urgent question: Can community still save democracy? Drawing from the spirit of the Black Panthers, the precision of a techno-thriller, and the emotional depth of urban fiction, the novel delivers a bold vision of how Black women—often the most reliable and underrecognized voting bloc in American politics—can counter digital warfare with unity, intelligence, and courage.

The AI Revolution Trilogy by David L. Wadley | Afrofuturist Political Fiction A three-book Afrofuturist trilogy exploring AI, finance, surveillance, and Black resistance in a near-future America. WOMEN INVESTING | BOOK SERIES & QUOTES The AI Revolution: African American Trilogy The AI Revolution Will Not Be Televised Passport Bro Bulls, Bears, and Bad Bitches The AI Revolution: African American Trilogy by David L. Wadley Three novels. One technological reckoning. A fight for identity, power, and survival in the age of artificial intelligence. Series Overview The AI Revolution: African American Trilogy is a near-future, socially grounded fiction series that explores how artificial intelligence, financial systems, immigration enforcement, and political power collide—and how Black communities respond when technology is weaponized against them. Spanning finance, culture, romance, surveillance, and resistance, the trilogy follows interconnected characters whose lives are reshaped by algorithms that claim neutrality while quietly deciding who prospers, who is targeted, and who disappears. This is not science fiction set in distant galaxies. This is tomorrow—barely disguised . The Core Question of the Series What happens when artificial intelligence stops predicting outcomes—and starts enforcing them? Across three novels, the trilogy examines: Who controls data Who writes the algorithms Who gets erased when systems value efficiency over humanity Each book stands on its own, but together they form a single escalating narrative about power, accountability, and the cost of silence . Book One The AI Revolution Will Not Be Televised 🏆 Winner of the Literary Titan Gold Book Award The series begins with financial literacy as resistance . Set in Harlem, the novel follows David , a self-taught stock trading expert who uses AI investing education and R&B-infused online lessons to empower Black women shut out of traditional financial systems. As his movement grows, Wall Street pushes back. Love, tragedy, and legacy collide as David’s work exposes how economic power—and access to knowledge—can threaten entrenched institutions. Themes : AI investing • financial independence • Black women and wealth • culture as education • economic resistance 🔘 View Book One Book Two Passport Bro The second novel turns inward—examining identity, masculinity, and escape . As Nubia rises professionally in the world of AI-driven finance and global systems, her partner begins to unravel. Drawn to digital fantasies and international dating spaces, he constructs an alternate identity that promises control without accountability. What begins as curiosity becomes obsession—revealing how globalization, resentment, and curated online selves can corrode intimacy and self-worth. Themes: Modern masculinity • digital identity • power dynamics • globalization • emotional escape 🔘 View Book Two Book Three Bulls, Bears, and Bad Bitches The trilogy culminates in open confrontation . A secret AI system designed to automate immigration enforcement evolves into something far more dangerous—Spectre , an autonomous algorithm capable of erasing people from existence through databases and biometric records. At the center is Nubia Johnson , a former Immigration Services Officer whose ethical decision-making was secretly used as the system’s core template. When she rejects it, the machine responds with surveillance, blackouts, and coercion. Atlanta becomes the battleground as communities turn testimony into resistance and force the system to confront what it cannot compute: human truth . Themes: AI surveillance • immigration as data warfare • political power • community resistance • ethics vs efficiency 🔘 View Book Three Why This Trilogy Matters Together, these novels trace a clear arc: Money → Identity → Existence Book One asks who gets access to opportunity Book Two asks who we become when we feel left behind Book Three asks who survives when systems decide humanity is inefficient The trilogy refuses simple villains. Instead, it exposes how systems—when left unchecked—become the threat . Who This Series Is For Perfect for readers who enjoy: Afrofuturist fiction Near-future political thrillers AI and surveillance narratives Black-led, socially grounded storytelling Tech ethics and power dynamics Stories where resistance is communal, not individual Reading Order The AI Revolution Will Not Be Televised Passport Bro Bulls, Bears, and Bad Bitches (Each book can be read alone, but the full impact comes from reading the trilogy in order.)
