This review is from: Urban Suicide: The Enemy We Choose Not To See... Crisis in Black America (Paperback)

URBAN SUICIDE is a forbidden, tell all indoctrination of the state of Black America that will stir powerful dialogue and debate over the number one enemy of today's Black Man...HIMSELF! Not since George Orwell's 1984, has one sided propaganda impacted on the ideals of society and predicted the self-induced genocide of an entire culture within urban communities. To read Melvin BlackMan's testimony is like staring into the barrel of a loaded pistol, but only YOU can resist to pull the trigger and not let drugs, fame and fortune commit Urban Suicide on your brother, least you may destroy yourself on the day you have to stand alone without your brother. Melvin BlackMan is one of the most POWERFUL writers of our time who revolutionizes the battle against URBAN SUICIDE with EXPLOSIVE! REAL & NECESSARY dialogue about a modern day cultural epidemic that has never been expressed this powerfully and poignantly until now. It will cause you to look at your brother, husband, grandfather and son as if seeing them for the last time on this earth.One million black men will undoubtedly read the book as it travels upon the land like a plague that must be rid of, but instead captured and sealed in time with the hopes of saving the last Black Man standing. It's a war out there and only a book can slow down the most virulent mind. Read or DIE. It's your choice...BLACK MAN.
