Madhubuti has lead the national conversation on Black male empowerment and healing for our community. Taking Bullets : terrorism and Black life in twenty-first century America continues that conversation with a new urgency for the lives and survival of a new generation of Black men and boys who are confronted with much of the same disparity and adversity on the streets of every city in America. Madhubuti speaks directly to these young men with an empathic understanding of their plight, yet he sees hope and a vision for their future. He wants them to see this same hope and vision for themselves. In Taking Bullets, he also challenges community leaders, educators, and all of those individuals who directly impact the lives of our young men to develop sustained strategies to confront and challenge the systematic problems of police violence, mass incarceration and economic disparity"--Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 505 0 $a Preface: Also must be noted -- The B network -- Taking bullets -- Change the conversation -- Bold statements, but true -- The United States of empire -- Terror in the midst of prayer and empire -- Life's work and study -- Black men : obsolete, single, dangerous? -- Whiteness -- Violence, poverty, and health -- The police and prison industrial complexes -- Capitalism : gladiator culture -- Fathers and sons : a healing call -- Dying of ignorant talk while taking bullets -- Questions -- Money : owning self, community, businesses and tomorrows -- Reparations : a part of the answer -- Men among us -- Meaningful change -- Institutions for empowerment -- Women are -- Liberating men on the issues of women -- Rape : the male crime -- The damage we do -- Violence against women -- Hundred and more reasons to believe in women's liberation -- Art as answer -- The white, dark secret -- Standing as an African man : Black man in a sea of whiteness -- Afterword -- Remember -- Appendix: The Bill of Rights; The Constitution of the United States; The United Nations : Universal Declaration of Human Rights. 650 0 $a African American young men $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a African American boys $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Terrorism $x Social aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Violence $x Social aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Healing $x Social aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Community life $z United States. 650 0 $a Man-woman relationships $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Race relations. 651 0 $a United States $x Social conditions $y 1980- 650 7 $a African American boys $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799059 650 7 $a African American young men $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799540 650 7 $a Community life. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00871028 650 7 $a Healing $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00952723 650 7 $a Man-woman relationships. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007080 650 7 $a Race relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086509 650 7 $a Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 650 7 $a Terrorism $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01148143 650 7 $a Violence $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01167262 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a Since 1980 $2 fast 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826052032.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2A5A504C6B5411E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
