Introduction by Henry Louis Gates Jr Young Black Men on Love and Violence Deepening our understanding of the young Black male experience, artists, poets, novelists, rappers, film-makers, journalists, and romantics speak out about their feelings on love and violence. An impassioned, electrifying, and wholly contemporary collection.
This is a timeless collection of pure emotion. These pieces tear down all the societical constructs of what men, black men in particular are supposed to be like. Life guided by the falice, no emotion, shallow thinking, and just pure ignorance. I would suggest all black men read this collection to give them some insight to themselves as well as the world around them, present, past and future. This collection was definitely an inspiration to me. I know it could do the same to you, no matter who you are.
