Two Continents One Hope is a book that focuses on the many societal ills that plagues the global black community with a real danger of annihilation. When S. Denice Newton traveled to South Africa in November 2011, she was able to personally witness the impact of the AIDS/HIV pandemic that is destroying families and futures on the continent. Upon returning to the U.S., Denice began to focus on those things that are affecting the quality of life for black people in America. In addition to high numbers of AIDS/HIV, American blacks are faced with systemic racism, high rates of crime and violence, gangs, drugs, and more. However, Denice writes that there is still hope for change. Through the subtitle, "Searching The Atlantic For The Souls Of Black People," Denice shows how the Transatlantic Slave trade continues to have an impact on many behaviors. She also highlights the many self-inflicted actions that are causing chaos and hopelessness in many black communities.
