Description

Only 34 percent of black children today are raised in two-parent households, a sharp contrast to 1966, when 85 percent of black children where raised by two parents. In provocative and heartfelt words, Hill Harper addresses this urgent challenge facing the black community, bringing a variety of issues out of the shadows. Capturing the conversations Harper and his friends frequently have, this is destined to be one of the year's most talked-about books - and one of Harper's most healing contributions to black culture.

Reviews

"Hill Harper trades solving crimes on-screen for a new mission: fixing relationship drama." -Essence "Hill's work presents a light, insightful, and accessible user's manual for African American men and women to better understand that which keeps us apart (and hopefully what can bring us closer together)." -Wearerespectablenegroes.blogspot.com
