     Black men face changes and challenges and accepting them makes them stand tall over other men. No man has endured and overcome adversities than a black man.

     No one can deny that black men throughout the world have made tremendous strides in education, science, politics, and economics. However, there are concerns that stymie the progress of millions of other black men dealing with marriage and relationships problems, joblessness and hopelessness. Many black men go to bed at night wondering if the world is going to continue holding two strikes against them as they try to support their children and families. When a Black Man Cries, is a book where black men discuss valid concerns of the struggles in their lives, and how they found the strength through their tears to overcome them. Weakness does not exist in a black man that cries, as When a Black Man Cries will illustrate, that these strong black men are fighting against forces that are sometimes more determined to defeat them.

Reviewed by Ronald Hull 5/24/2019
I agree with you fully about the plight of the black man. I have seen good men fold under the pressure of trying to get a job when black and highly qualified. I have heard of the arrest of Dr. Henry Gates for trying to get into his own home by police with the wrong narrative. In the past, so many black men accused of crimes they never committed. Hopefully, DNA and all of the cameras that are now being employed everywhere, including on policeman, will help turn the tide, along with some way of abolishing student loans as a way of capturing the future benefits of trying to go to college for the benefit of banks and money lenders.
