Peterson was born in 1949 at Comer Hill, Alabama, growing up on a plantation where his ancestors had been enslaved, and where his great-grandfather had been lynched by a mob of angry whites.<sup id="cite_ref-man-alone_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-man-alone-8">&#91;8&#93;</a></sup> Peterson's father refused to admit his existence and his mother fled early in his life to start a family with another man. Thus, Peterson's childhood was spent with his grandparents. Peterson's grandfather was extremely strict and disciplined him harshly, and worked as a farm manager for the plantation which was, at that time, still owned by white people who were no longer in the area. His grandparents indoctrinated him to the idea that their poor circumstances were not the result of anti-black <a href="/wiki/Racism" title="Racism">racism</a>, but instead of moral and "spiritual" problems.<sup id="cite_ref-man-alone_8-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-man-alone-8">&#91;8&#93;</a></sup> </p><p>Peterson himself admits to the problems he suffered without a father, seemingly oblivious to the fact that anecdotal experience is not sufficient justification for a broad political view about all black society and culture. Peterson says that he had a “hunger for father.<sup>(sic)</sup>”<sup id="cite_ref-man-alone_8-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-man-alone-8">&#91;8&#93;</a></sup> Peterson expresses that later in life when he finally met this man, he derived great pleasure from visiting him. </p><p>From here, Peterson's story turns into a typical "rebirth" plot arc. Straight out of high school, Peterson became dependent on the welfare system, first by merely claiming to be a drug addict to collect a sizable monthly check. Eventually, however, Peterson descended into actual drug abuse and "wanton" sex.<sup id="cite_ref-man-alone_8-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-man-alone-8">&#91;8&#93;</a></sup> Around this time, Peterson also began to involve himself with black nationalist movements, led by people such as <a href="/wiki/Louis_Farrakhan" title="Louis Farrakhan">Louis Farrakhan</a>, who Peterson says "made him feel good to be black."<sup id="cite_ref-man-alone_8-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-man-alone-8">&#91;8&#93;</a></sup> At some point during this time, Peterson also attended Los Angeles City College for a year, leaving without a degree. </p><p>To no-one's surprise, Peterson eventually ran into a friendly white man who converted him to the <a href="/wiki/Conservative_correctness" title="Conservative correctness">correct political viewpoint</a> through his enlightened evangelical rhetoric. Peterson claims that the prayers of Roy Masters made him understand that his anger was directed against his parents and that white people were not "responsible" for the problems Peterson had experienced in his life. Following this event, Peterson eventually became a prominent political commentator, taking advantage of peoples' proclivity to take pleasure in consuming content that reinforces their own unjustified and prejudiced beliefs. </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Religious_practice_and_cult-like_behavior">Religious practice and cult-like behavior</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Jesse_Lee_Peterson&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: Religious practice and cult-like behavior">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h2> <p>Peterson is a pastor and founder of the Brotherhood Organization of A New Destiny (BOND) in Los Angeles, <a href="/wiki/California" class="mw-redirect" title="California">California</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9">&#91;9&#93;</a></sup> This church purports to be able to deal with men's issues (seemingly primarily). </p><p>Peterson's BOND does not (at this moment) meet all the criteria for a <a href="/wiki/Cult" title="Cult">cult</a>.
