Lit Review: Who's Afraid of Post-Blackness?

3/1/2012

Picture
In Post-Blackness, Toure takes a journey through the lives and circumstances of numerous Africans in America.  From styles of discipline to miseducated middle class, he touches on most facets in the experience.  He asks some profound questions on the current overall direction of those of the Diaspora, infusing his personal experiences and through the interview of many others from campus intellectuals to comedians.  There are the painful realities of the struggle and the personal triumphs of many, but Toure delves into common plight and possible means of dialogue to spark the eventual development of identity healing. 

Great line from the book: "If you're scared to publish it, then you absolutely must publish it."
