    He is very strongly opinionated about the true image, and believes it should be adhered to perfectly because “THE NORM IS THE WILL OF GOD”. During one of his lectures about the true image and blasphemy, Joseph clearly states that “The Norm is the Image of God”, and this is a philosophy that he strictly upholds. “The enemies of God besiege us… they work to distort the true image… they attempt to defile the race”, “...It might destroy the divine order…”.

    The stratification of society based not only on race but gender has held its roots in slavery especially for female slaves. In Harriet Jacobs's autobiography, "Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl," she addresses three key points vital to understanding gender inequality in slavery: The "incidents" discussed failed to convince critics of her legitimacy. Male runaways such as Frederick Douglass gained credibility more easily even though access to education was a rarity for the females. Marriages and love affairs unsupervised by the master resulted in severe punishments through rape and other forms of sexual objectification.
