More DescriptionThis book is a nine chapter detailed analysis of the longstanding misanthropical social, political and racial identity of black America, and the significant contributions which black America itself has made to this infamous racial image through a long history of subversive social and immoral behavior, and essential political abstinence. Virtually all aspects of the black urban experience in education, employment, crime, the criminal justice system, politics, entertainment, and the black family breakdown, are analyzed in an effort to identify the fundamental internal etiologies of the negative black racial image, and the resultant effect on race relations in America. An image which unfortunately the majority of urban blacks themselves have helped to create. Included in the book, in respective chapters, will be a detailed assessment of the controversial black urban perspective on high profile race related events and public figures including the O.J. Simpson trial, Rodney King, Justice Clarence Thomas, Anita Hill, as well as Louis Farrakhan's Nation of Islam, and other black radical organizations, events and issues, and their influence on race relations and the complex racial fabric of this country.
