Since the book is dealing with some teen issues,I can somewhat relate...in essence,the book is okay.Another book that I am reading is Strange Fruit a biography about a song.The book is about the origin of Strange Fruit, a song that Billie Holiday sang.I also like Singing in the Comeback Choir by BeBe Moore.

The Souls of Black Folk
In the souls of black folks he is clowning Booker T. Washington, Hampton, and Tuskeegee < however you spell it
Yeah that was really good . . . .a little wordy for my taste but still a good, thought provoking read. A lot of the things he talks about are still VERY relevant today and it he wrote it a century ago. Talk about a visionary.

Very true that is why our chancellor want everyone in the school to read it..... it think he is making the faculty read it ..... that book is so informative about the past and how life was and what needs to be done or else this will happen and it did come to past......
HE IS THE MAN that is all i have to say
A new author that has released a very good novel for his first time.
Between Brothers-C.Kelley Robinson
About 4 brothas at an HBCU(think like a Howard or Hampton) and how they struggle to keep a teen center open. Its sound weak but read the book and you'll find its a good read. Its funny too(u gotta read it)
In Search for Satisfaction... J. California Cooper (my favorite)
Anything Richard Wright (Black Boy, Native Son)
Anything Toni Morrison
Anything W.e.b. DuBois
Hell...I love reading!
Has anyone read the book from **** to GODS by Akil?? It's supposed to be really good but I want to hear what other people though of it before I read it. 8)
