Race Matters

Title:Race Matters
Author:Cornel West
# of pages:159
List Price:$12.00
Buy Now: $11.00

As a scholar, theologian, and activist, West's subject matter ranges from the crisis in black leadership and the myths surrounding black sexuality to affirmative action, the new black conservatism, and the strained relations between Jews and African Americans. He never hesitates to confront the prejudices of all his readers-or wavers in his insistence that they share a common destiny. Bold in it's thought and written with a redemptive passion grounded in the tradition of the African-American church, Race matters is a work that is at once challenging and deeply healing. It represents the thinking of a man at the forefront of discussions about race and will stand for years as the book to turn to for creative insights into the problems of our multiracial democracy.
Race Matters is a compelling blend of philosophy, sociology and political commentary.

As a lawyer and criminal court judge, Bruce Wright has seen, first-hand, the disturbing truth about how fundamentally unfair our judicial system is toward African Americans. In this important book, he takes a hard look at these inequities, documenting them with numerous cases drawn from his years of experience in the courts.
With unflinching honesty, he tackles such controversial subjects as the deep seeded societal prejudices of white judges, the lack of black judges, the long history of excluding blacks from law schools and bar associations, the practice of setting higher bail for black defendants, the anti-black biases of white jurors, and the black defendant's limited access to quality legal representation.
BRUCE WRIGHT practiced law in New York City for twenty years before serving ten turbulent years as a judge in New York's Criminal Court and two more years in Civil Court. He was a New York State Supreme Court Justice for over 15 years.

Blueprint for Black Power

Title:Blueprint for Black Power
Author:Amos N. Wilson
# of pages:889
List Price:$38.00
Buy Now: $32.00

Afrikan life into the coming millennia is imperiled by White and Asian power. True power must nest in the ownership of the real estate wherever Afrikan people dwell. Economic destiny determines biological destiny.
Afrikan Americans earn a take-home salary of near $500 billion yearly, not to mention the trillions they generate. Yet they retain only 5% of this income. Viewed as a nation, their economy would be 8th or 9th largest in the world! Afrikan Americans possess enormous potential to amass effectual social, political, and economic power and thus control their destiny and secure their liberation.
Blueprint posits that an Afrikan American/Caribbean/Pan-Afrikan bloc would be the most potent for the generation and delivery of Black power in the United States and the world to counter White and Asian power networks. Aptly titled, Blueprint for Black Power stops not at critique but prescribes radical, practical theories, frameworks and approaches for true power. It gives a biting look into Black potentiality. This 900-page treatise is a journey into the protracted.



In the Assassination of the Black Male Image, noted political analyst and media critic Dr. Earl Ofari Hutchinson offers a searing, controversial indictment of our society's attitudes toward black men. The black male image, he argues, has been battered, maligned, and assaulted by academics, the press, and Hollywood, as well as by some rappers, comedians, feminists, filmmakers, and novelists--many of whom he accuses of reinforcing, and profiting from, ethics and sexual stereotypes.
Offering both a wide historical perspective and acute insights into such racially charged events as the O.J. Simpson trial, the Clarence Thomas hearings, and the Million Man March, Hutchinson brilliantly counters the image of the black male as a figure entrenched in crime, drugs, and violence. At the same time, he issues a deeply moving call to rethink the way we view African-American men.
