In 1989 Perryman brought together gang leaders from two rival gangs along with Washington State's most powerful Black leaders and politicians to negotiate a truce. That meeting led to the formation of
Role Models Unlimited .In 1993, Perryman challenged major Christian publishers with his research book entitled, "The 1993 Trial on the Curse of Ham" about the "
curse of Ham " - a theory that had existed for over three hundred years. In his book, he proved that the publishers were wrong when they claimed that, according to the Bible, the Black race was cursed. The curse theory was used to justify slavery, establishJim Crow Laws , and promote racial discrimination. Perryman's book forced two major Christian publishers and theEncyclopedia Britannica to remove this false theology from their publications.In 1998 Perryman led a protest against police department profiling in
Washington . Perryman had frequently been stopped in hisMercer Island hometown by police claiming his being there was suspicious.
