The Black Woman as Endangered Species: Isolated, Hunted, Hounded, Harassed, Hoodwinked, & Hacked from History (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781973853985)

This book is going to be sharply criticized because as a black male I am very hard on the bruthas. At the same time I call it the way I see it so if folks don't like it, then too bad. I begin by outlining explaining the difference between being "threatened" and "endangered." This is all part of what I refer to as "the pedestal of endangerment," which started during enslavement. The book then goes into what is called "a study in self-rejection" and addresses the role of the media - stigma, stereotypes and stoicism. I am critical of the Black Movement and its treatment of the sistahs, and discuss that movement from the Panthers, US through Hip Hop. I address a number of other issues: hair, conspicuous consumption and "hacking her from history" by way of three r's: religion, revisionism and rape. Issues such as the "down-low," the spread of AIDS and the presence of non-black women. Read it and learn. I wrote it because I am a part of what is problematic in the face. But through my "developmental critiques" I hope to pave the way for our gender-confused millennials before it is too late.
