More Description
This book brings to the forefront racial equality versus social equality and how it shaped the life of the author. He begins this journey from his childhood living in the projects in Detroit, MI all the way to adulthood living in Japan. Although he did not remain in the projects, he never loses connection with the moments there as he learned how to embrace the different energy he experienced in the University District in the very same city. Like so many single mothers, Andre's mother did what she believed to be the best move for the safety and success of her family. Everything he experienced in his life helped to shape and form the man he is today. While the central theme of the book is heavy, you'll have your fair share of laughs throughout.
The book is not a woe-is-me tale by an African American author. It doesn't come across as preachy or high brow. However, in a similar vein to works by those esteemed authors, this book aims to simply hold a mirror up to society. The reader can make their own conclusions about what is reflected back.
