Has anyone seen the book "Why Black Men Love White Women" by Rajen Persaud? I saw the book at Barnes and Noble yesterday. The cover is good. Hope for your replies.

Not sure about it though... the forbidden fruit theory is kind of annoying, not??

 

i've read the book, and it's not as good and expository as the title suggests, simply provocative.

Another book:

Leaving the fold

 

I do love the covers of those books. What is your opinion on Mark Mathabane's book on IR?

 

I work next do a Borders bookstore.

The cover is nice enough but the Author presents a very unflattering picture of WW/BM relationships. He leaves no stereotype unturned as he bashes black men for stepping through 1000 good black women to get to that White woman.

Look, I work in a large independent Black Bookstore. I am very familiar with African American books, publishers and authors. 90% of the African Americans who write, publish, and read those books are black women.

The book is written to please black women as an audience, plain and simple.

 

In LA, professional black men with non-black women is very very common.

 

So true.

 

I know. I come to SoCal a lot.

 

Just curious, are there any books titled, Why White Women love Black Men? :?:

 

I see where you're going with this, but for the record, not to my acknowledgement.

 

Next ,you hit it on the head.

 

Honestly, i do not give a fuck who likes who, but what i do care about is the double standard in the black community. A black woman can write a poem about her affection for white men and it's all good, but a brotha can't even look at a white woman and not get castrated by black women. As much as it's disgusting, that double standard exists.

 

"Love in Black & White" by Mark & Gail Mathabane was an EXCELLENT read....nothing less..

An' outta the 1500 hardcover tomes that I owned, that *IS* one of the top 10 on my list of personal favourites!

This topic really confused me: - there is a fairly famous British psychiatrist with the same name, and I thought it was the same person...

fortunately not!

Book looks like a pile of c**p though.

 

OMG...I read Kaffir Boy in America by Mark Mathabane....usually w/books I either buy them or if I'm at the library...I'll take them home but his was the first book where I just sat in the library and read it even after checking it out.
