Where Faith, Equality, and the Power of Love Converge
From its modest beginnings in 1949, when postwar publishers gathered in Frankfurt to rebuild and share new ideas, the Frankfurter Buchmesse has grown into the world’s most important international book fair. Over the decades, it has transformed from a regional gathering of German publishers into a global platform where stories are launched, partnerships are forged, and the future of publishing is shaped. That journey of steady growth, vision, and innovation is what makes the fair so influential today.
Now celebrating its 77th year, the Frankfurter Buchmesse 2025 is set to host more than 7,500 exhibitors from across the globe. It offers far more than book displays: visitors can explore groundbreaking titles, attend insightful discussions with leading authors and thinkers, witness the latest in publishing technology, and discover how books continue to evolve across media and cultures. It’s not just a fair — it’s a creative crossroads where tradition meets tomorrow.
The Imagination Peoples the Air
Frankfurter Buchmesse 2025
Adding to the excitement, the Philippines takes center stage as the Guest of Honour for 2025, presenting the theme “The Imagination Peoples the Air” — a powerful nod to the nation’s storytelling spirit inspired by José Rizal’s Noli Me Tangere. With over a hundred Filipino authors, artists, and events bringing the country’s rich literary heritage and contemporary voices to Frankfurt, this year’s fair celebrates not only books but also the vibrant diversity of global storytelling.
Amid this global dialogue of faith, culture, and hope, Kravitz & Sons proudly presents One Race: There Will Only Be One Race of People in Heaven, and That Race Is People by Gerome Singleterry — a deeply moving Christian work that speaks directly to humanity’s shared purpose under God.
Breaking Barriers Through Faith
In One Race, Gerome Singleterry delivers a powerful and timely message: before God, there are no racial divisions, only people created in His image. With grace and conviction, Singleterry addresses one of the most enduring struggles of our world — racism — by returning to the truth of Scripture and the commandment of love.
Drawing from his own life experiences and biblical study, he explores the roots of prejudice, the dangers of spiritual blindness, and the transformative power of divine compassion. Each chapter, from “No Racial Wars in Heaven” to “Church Racism” and “Racism Taught,” urges readers to look inward — to allow God to change hearts and unite humanity beyond color and culture.
Written in clear, heartfelt prose, One Race is both testimony and teaching. It’s not a book of condemnation but one of restoration — a call to live as God intended: in unity, empathy, and peace. As Singleterry reminds us through Scripture, “There will only be one race of people in heaven, and that race is people.”
A Voice of Faith and Compassion
Gerome Singleterry is a born-again Christian, musician, and devoted servant of God whose life and ministry are rooted in love and service. Born in Jemison, Alabama, Singleterry’s passion for spreading God’s word has taken many forms — from writing and performing over 300 Contemporary Christian songs with his group Gerome and the Band Called Faith, to authoring daily devotionals such as Think About It? and Which Way?
A devoted husband, father, and grandfather, Singleterry’s faith is the foundation of his life. His writing, rich with Scripture and lived experience, reflects his lifelong mission: to heal division, foster understanding, and glorify God through the written and spoken word. His heartfelt prose bridges cultural divides and speaks to the shared human desire for peace and belonging under one Creator.
Why It Belongs on the Global Stage
At a fair that celebrates dialogue and diversity, One Race brings a message the world needs now more than ever — that unity begins not with systems or politics, but with transformed hearts. Gerome Singleterry’s work transcends borders, offering a universal truth grounded in faith: God sees no color, only His creation.
By addressing the deep wounds of racism through biblical love and wisdom, One Race aligns perfectly with the Frankfurter Buchmesse’s spirit of global understanding. It reminds us that storytelling can do more than entertain — it can heal, inspire, and reconcile.
As nations, readers, and faiths gather in Frankfurt, One Race stands as a beacon of divine compassion, echoing the promise of Revelation: that in heaven, there will be no divisions, only people — united in the eternal love of God.
