Beskrivelse
Black folks take whites much too seriously. (Except for the police. Everybody, and especially black men, has to be wary of them because you never know when a couple of them may have had a bad day.) Taking whites too seriously is just one of the things I write about in this book. This collection of essays is about identifying and using the power we have as members of the American body politic to work together for our common good. The essays also emphasize our mutual dependency and cover a range of topics from personal and spiritual development to issues that impact our interactions with one another in the public sphere: the environment, economics, entertainment, mass transit, politics, and race relations. 'Choosing a Life in the Dark Age,' is one of the most courageous, and powerful pieces that I've read in a very long time. 'Rules for Women Who Can't Do Enough' feels so personal that it could be a private letter. Dr. Sherri Bucher, Indianapolis
