In speaking about the contents of this writing, warriors will find a large collection of essential thinking and working tools. In recognizing that you can bring a man to knowledge but you cant make him think, this think book is full of timeless wisdom and battle tested lessons which can assist those who recognize that we are at war and their need to submit themselves to the Akobens call. It offers a generous collection of personal thoughts, fictional knowledge, challenges, motivations and concrete affirmations which can guide warriors toward building and strengthening their character. If studied well, it can even assist the unsure in finding more productive ways to calibrate their desire to better reflect the depth of both the demand that they be Afrikan and creatively envision victory (Mwalimu K. Bomani Baruti). In writing this book, Baba Imhotep Asis Fatiu has added to the ongoing dialogue about African manhood. His insights are on point. His perspective of African manhood is brilliant and is a must study for anyone interested in African manhood. This is a fascinating book (Anonymous).

While masculinity studies enjoys considerable growth in the West, there is very little analysis of African masculinities. This volume explores what it means for an African to be masculine and how male identity is shaped by cultural forces. The editors believe that to tackle the important questions in Africa-the many forms of violence (wars, genocides, familial violence and crime) and the AIDS pandemic-it is necessary to understand how a combination of a colonial past, patriarchal cultural structures and a variety of religious and knowledge systems creates masculine identities and sexualities. The work done in the book particularly bears in mind how vulnerability and marginalization produce complex forms of male identity. The book is interdisciplinary and is the first in-depth and comprehensive study of African men as a gendered category.

Imagine the King waking up one morning and forgetting who he is. He doesn't recognize his Queen. He doesn't realize the palace is his home. He's told that he is a slave and begins to act accordingly. With no memory of his Kingdom or his Queen he becomes the first of generations living apart from their true royal identity.Is he forever doomed to exist as a slave? Does he have any chance of reclaiming and recovering what is rightfully his? Have the kingdom thieves made it impossible to return?The answer is a resounding "NO!"Mitchell Chance, author, minister, activist and Black King takes us from cause to effect to solution in this no-holds-barred journey from being Black in America to being Black Kings in America. From root to fruit. From purpose to position to power. The 6 A's of Manhood is must reading for men and women seeking solutions instead of waiting for handouts. This book is a prescription for wellness for those who are sick and tired. A call for individuals to become who and what they were born to be and to extend themselves to their own families and communities. This is not a life-changing book, it's a generations-changing book.

Studies of gender in African Christianity have usually focused on women. This book draws attention to men and constructions of masculinity, particularly important in light of the HIV epidemic which has given rise to a critical investigation of dominant forms of masculinity. These are often associated with the spread of HIV, gender-based violence and oppression of women. Against this background Christian theologians and local churches in Africa seek to change men and transform masculinities. Exploring the complexity and ambiguity of religious gender discourses in contemporary African contexts, this book critically examines the ways in which some progressive African theologians, and a Catholic parish and a Pentecostal church in Zambia, work on a 'transformation of masculinities'.

Masculinity Under Construction: Literary Re-Presentations of Black Masculinity in the African Diaspora analyzes Black male identity as constructed by Black male authors. In each chapter, Dr. Jefferson-James discusses a different "construction" or definition of masculine identity produced by men of African descent on the continent of Africa, in the Caribbean, and in North America. Combing through the works of James Baldwin, Chinua Achebe, Ralph Ellison, George Lamming, and other pan-African authors, Masculinity Under Construction argues for the importance of analyzing the historical context that contributed to the formation of Black male identity. Additionally, Dr. Jefferson-James draws a relationship between Black feminists and writers, such as Anna Julia Cooper and her contemporaries, and these works of literature viewed as primarily about Black masculinity.

Black men in general and specifically in America are survivors. In the twenty-first century, strategies are needed to overcome the petulant and devious psychosocial racist hurdles yet remaining. A guide or handbook employs the "how to" in recognizing obstacles and the steps required to circumvent and overcome them. Black men must begin assuming responsibility and accountability for the chains of stagnation-spiritually, socially, psychologically-some are bound by. Black men have proven we can survive and thrive. But there yet remain many who need the assistance and how-to instructions and encouragement that this book enlists. Quoting the Bible, the sacrosanct word of God, God's word will not return unto him void of the purpose for which He sent it. He sent His Son, now it's time he sent you, survivor. Rise up, black man.
