Book Review on Fighting the Conspiracy to Destroy Black Boys Vol. IIIThe book I am reviewing is called Countering the conspiracy to destroy black boys Vol. iii, and it is written by Jawanza Kunjufu, an educational consultant with African-American imagery. This book is intended to help the rest of society better understand and deal with the step-by-step growth of young black boys. It also explains an effective way for parents and teachers to help young black boys become adult men. Another important thing he talked about is how learning methods differ based on gender and race. Jawanza also makes a strong argument that the education system is not intended to help black boys succeed. It also explains how the conspiracy to destroy black boys begins at birth due to drug addiction, lack of pre- and post-natal care, and more. This book is divided into four chapters using developmental stage at different stages of a child's development. an adult. The first chapter goes from early childhood to nine years old, the second chapter from nine to fourteen years old, fourteen to eighteen years old and finally adulthood which goes from eighteen to twenty-five years old. In each of these chapters, Jawanza lists the problems black boys face at this age, the reasons for these problems, and also suggests solutions. The author clearly states that no stage is more important than another, but he believes that the adolescence stage (nine to fourteen years) is the most critical. He also believes that the presence of an adult black male makes a big difference in the life of a young black male. To begin, I will talk about the first stage, which is from infancy to age nine. According to the author, there is a shortage of adult African American men in society. That shit...... middle of paper...... the military or having to take low paying jobs. There will be fewer children born out of wedlock, especially if the children are raised to fear God and are believed to practice abstinence. If we are unable to control all these theses at a young age, then we find a method to help damaged adults. Considering the fact that I am a young black boy myself, I believe the author really covered most of the issues of young black boys. confront. One good thing about this book though is that the author also offers possible solutions to the problems he has listed. This book also helps me better understand the concept of lynching that we discussed in my African American class. Ultimately, the book opened my mind to unknown obstacles that hinder the success of not only African Americans but the entire world in general. I also recommend that this book be read by all young black boys.
