How To Be Black

Have you ever been called "too black" or "not black enough"? Have you ever befriended or worked with a black person? If you answered yes to any of these questions, this book is for you. Raised by a pro-black, Pan-Afrikan single mother during the crack years of 1980s Washington, DC, and educated at Sidwell Friends School and Harvard University, Baratunde Thurston has over thirty years' experience being black. Now, through stories of his politically inspired Nigerian name, the heroics of his hippie mother, the murder of his drug-abusing father, and other revelatory black details, he shares with readers of all colors his wisdom and expertise in how to be black. 9780062647542 0062647547 0 BOOK Biography & Autobiography NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=daRx0AEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
