Overview

Some of the nation's most prominent and visible preachers-including Jeremiah Wright Jr., Charles Booth, Walter Thomas, Otis Moss, and Ralph Douglas West-candidly explore the issues faced by African American men in our society. Exposing the struggles that black men confront daily, often alone in silence, these messages of hope seek to empower men who are attempting to overcome feelings of inadequacy in their roles as husbands, fathers, and professionals. Collectively, these messages analyze the social, political, and psychological odds faced by black males and present an awakened spirituality as an alternative to such escapes as drugs, crime, and sexual misconduct.
