Book Written by Sobonfu Some
Reviewed by Saadiq Mance
Western ideology has contributed to a variety of unhealthy philosophical beliefs for people in general and Black people in particular. These Western ideologies are particularly damaging to Black people because many of these thought patterns are in direct contradiction to the ancient teachings passed down through generations of ancestors whose descendants are now dispersed in the Diaspora. Thankfully, Sobonfu Some has accepted the life mission to help resurrect African spirituality, which is the foundation of traditional African ideology. |

Book Written by: Paul Ifayomi Grant
Reviewed by: Saadiq Mance
I am sure each and everyone reading this book review has read, heard, or viewed a news report describing the dire condition that Black men and boys are facing in the 21st century. This is why author Paul Ifayomi Grant asks the question, "when will enough be enough."
Grant, like many Black fathers around the world, is fed up with the prospects that our son's face in the future. As such, his book "Saving our Sons: Strategies and Advice for the Parents of Afrikan Teenage Sons," is his answer for the question, "what do we do to save our sons." |

Book written by Cathy Harris
Reviewed by Saadiq Mance
Community organizer and human rights activist Cathy Harris has done a remarkable job laying out a comprehensive guide for just about anyone who may be facing a life changing dilemma. Her book, "How to Take Control of Your Own Life" is the first book one should read if facing termination from a job, bankruptcy, a career change, problems with the justice system, problems within the community, frustration with the political system, or looking to become a first time entrepreneur. It may seem quite difficult to provide guidance on such a wide range of topics in one book, but somehow Harris has managed to summarize everything on the above topics and more in this must read "self-help guide to moving forward." |

Book written by Chancellor Williams
Reviewed by Saadiq Mance
In the past, I have heard several people refer to The Destruction of Black Civilization, by Chancellor Williams as the "Black Bible." With such a lofty analogy attached to this book, I wonder to this day why it took me so long to read this amazing story of Black history. Well, Black History Month 2007 would be the year my eyes would be open and all I can say at this point is thank you Chancellor Williams! |

Book written by Dr. Jawanza Kunjufu
Reviewed by Saadiq Mance
It is a known fact that the public school systems in communities where the majority of the population are living near or below the poverty line are failing the students. Many educators and policy makers are blaming poverty as the reason for the poor performance of these schools, but is this assessment short changing a whole generation of students? Dr. Jawanza Kunjufu thinks so. |
