x***Official Editors' Page*** MANNISH WATER: An Anthology of Social, Political and Cultural Essays by Black, Scholarly Men in 21st-Century America-Reflections on their Lives and their World EDITED BY CARLTON LONG and OLUFEMI VAUGHAN
WITH A FOREWORD BY PENIEL E. JOSEPH
(Award-Winning Author of The Sword and the Shield: The Revolutionary Lives of Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr.) AND AN AFTERWORD BY YOHURU WILLIAMS (Distinguished University Professor of History, University of St. Thomas) In this rare collection of new and previously unpublished essays, this non-fiction anthology allows Black, scholarly men as "Black men" to reveal their sacrifices, power and achievements through great attention to detail -- their flesh and their
bone revealed through the profound and important telling of their personal journeys. Those familiar with the Caribbean in general, and with Jamaica in particular, will recognize that "Mannish Water" is the name given to a particular dish known synonymously as "Goat Head Soup". It is flesh and bone. It is sacrifice. And it is power prepared with care, with great attention to detail, and served up to make us strong. FEATURING
