About this listen

An NAACP Image Award nominee, The Black Male Handbook is an impassioned call to end the problems facing today's Black men. Author and activist Kevin Powell offers insights on steering away from violence and toward a more responsible manhood. A new climate is rising in the Black community. Despite a shared thirst for cutting-edge opportunities and fresh directions, today's hiphop generation is still plagued by many long-standing problems. But with guidance from these inspiring essays, the modern Black male can rise above the political, cultural, and spiritual struggles opposing him to thrive against all odds. Featured prominently on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Powell and his book offer welcome guidance to all Black men - and the women who love them. Narrators Ezra Knight, Kevin R. Free, and Avery Glymph each turn in compelling performances, capturing every facet of this important work.©2008 Kevin Powell (P)2009 Recorded Books, LLC African American Studies Black & African American Personal Success Stress Management United States Thought-Provoking Inspiring

Well needed read

The book speaks to a great number of issues that many black men may have regarding the role of black men, conduct towards women, financial security, the meaning of community, homophobia and provides helpful tips to succeed as a black man. Many points I already found myself doing and others were a much needed reminder that I’m severely lacking those areas. This book should be taught/ read to any young black male as he embarks on his journey in this world.

I truly wish I’d known about this book sooner!

Amazing book that covers everything from relationships with the opposite sex, to health, and how you present yourself to the world as a black man.

Great read!

I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I thought it was great. It was very insightful and they gave a lot of detail to things like consider would be topics that you would definitely be able to benefit from. it's the kind of book that I wish that I had read 15 years ago or the kind of book that I would definitely be giving my son to read as he comes of age
