A Historical Voyage Through The Modern-Day Afrikan American Male Psyche Shawn Coleman

Though this book will be educational (and entertaining for some) it is meant to be explorative. Instead of using information to be solely and arrogantly definitive regarding facts and truths - as traditional history books do, I have written this book to be an exploration of ideas, situations, time periods, and concepts in relation to the modern day Afrikan American male psyche. As a highly skilled professional counselor, depth psychological therapist, and general student of life, when I look at the state of Black men and boys in certain parts of the world, I have an intense curiosity regarding the wellbeing of the Black male. There is robust joy and proudness that I have in being a Black man. Yet, there is also a bit of disappointment that I experience when surveying the collective behavior of modern day Black men in America. While this book merges my depth psychological/clinical wisdom, knowledge of attention-grabbing history in correlation to human behavior, and experiential familiarity with self-love, it offers spaces to continue authentic discussions that challenge negative Black American male perspectives. It will also guide and promote the advancement of healthy Black people. So, go and grab the things you need as we take a historical voyage through the modern day Afrikan American male psyche.*This book has been written for exploration purposes only.
