During the past couple of years, I thought a lot about Black people and how we are coping during the turmoil in our society and world and I realized that no matter how intense things get,what matters most is BLACK LOVE, which in itself is a critical point of unity. To that end,I proceeded as I always do when I write a new book. I opened my computer, created a new Microsoft Word File and then wrote the words, Chapter One. I created a working title and then I let the writing begin from my heart and mind. As always, I used my journal to free write my thoughts and then I incorporated some of that detail, with modification as I desired. The result this time is here:
Below is a description of this book, which is available on
Amazon. I hope you will get a copy, spread the word about it and read it, absorbing every morsel of the goodness of Black Love in your heart,mind and soul and share it with others. I would also love to know your thoughts, so we can engage in dialogue about it, so feel free to write to me. Most importantly though, I want you to enjoy it! #BlackLove is the answer for Black people!
Description
This book, simply put, is about Black love. Beyond insight about black fatherhood, motherhood and marriage, it gets personal. There are six, heartwarming, intimate and delightful interviews about Black love with a Professional Basketball player, a President of a College, a DJ, a Music Producer, Teachers, an Actress and more. Reading their stories is an opportunity to feel and understand Black love, through their lenses, and learn from the successes of their relationships. Meeting the newlyweds, the single father and those Black men who have been married for the long term is encouraging and shatters the myth of the missing Black father. Pearls of wisdom are dropped in each interview, which are truly gems. Before and after these soulful sojourns, the reader gets to participate in this jaunt into Black love through exercises, throughout the book, which are followed by a list of Black love ingredients and affirmations for everyday consideration. This book, is not written as a discourse about segregation or division, but rather to invite everyone to understand, explore and appreciate the beauty of Black Love, in a very diverse world.
