since i read a lot of political books i would suggest "stupid white men and other sorry excuses for the state of our country"

[C Diddy]

I recommend NO ZANE books and nothing EVERBODY has already read like half of Omar Tyree's books.

We need to move that one thread from THE YARD in here because this one person had a really good list ... that I wouldn't mind reading.

I would like to read "The Miseducation of the Negro" and this book called "******" haven't read either on but I heard they were good reads.

And can we get a deadline for book entries. June has already started so we need a book by like TOMORROW.

Cosign... thats on my to read list to. I read 1 paragraph in the middle of the book and I knew i had to get it.

Other books i think others should read are:
Soul On Ice - Eldridge Cleaver (A MUST FOR ANY BLACK MALE)
THE DEBT - Randall Robinson

Even if you don't read it for this book club i really do encourage you to go out and add them to your personal library. I think the Stupid White Men is a Good Idea especially with elections coming up and Bush acting the way he is.

I want to cosign to this . . . .


Let's try to narrow down this list to something we can vote on soon. I personally can't think of anything to suggest at the moment, but I am willing to read just about anything you guys pick. so . . .let's get this thing started

I've never heard of an actual book called "Stupid White Men," but I've heard of a documentary (by Michael Moore...same person who made "Bowling for Columbine" 8))...but anyway, sounds like a plan for me....here's another vote for "Stupid White Men"...

& while we're on the line of thinking about reading books like that, there's an interesting read about the "Uncle Toms" of today....I can't remember the book's name in its entirety...but something to the extent of "Your Guide of Today's Uncle Toms from A to Z" or somethin' like that....i'll get back...

but mean while...yea, "Stupid White Men" soundz str8...

soul on ice by eldridge cleaver was a really good book. I read it a couple of years back. I think he has one called soul on fire too.
