Thoughts of an Angry Black Man - Christopher Carr - Bog

A personal, in-depth exploration to understand what it means to be a Black man in today's America recovering from Melanoma. The beauty of being black, the horror of American history, the lies in the media, the truth of cultural legacy and the undying spirit of hope, and the specter of mortality - these topics permeate the work. The work features pieces titled: Supernegro, There will be Blood, Where do White People Come from, Summer at Sloan and more. This book is about much more than anger. it is really about love, vulnerability and a belief that humans can be better and do better than we have in the past. This book seeks to establish that people of African descent are not simply victims of colonialism, or only supporting characters in a Eurocentric narrative, but we exist in and create our own fabulous worlds, survive against all odds and have developed unparalleled levels of strength, empathy, and dedication that are ultimately inspiring.
