Up Lifting The Ethnic American Spirit

In Uplifting the Ethnic American Spirit, these are the issues I will address: dating, sexuality, sensuality, racism, integration, interracial dating/marriage, the role of the family, the extended family, what it means to grow up as part of a village and the sadness I feel over its demise. I include anything to help us remember who we are and why God created us as a race. We were made to shake the consciousness of humanity. Now, we need someone (myself) to awaken us to our true purpose and continue to strive for greatness. You may see the words Afro-American and African American or Black interchanged. The word Black is generic. It may be used by persons who are mulatto or of African descent but mixed with another race. Afro-Americans and African-Americans identify their connection to the continent of Africa. These titles all depict philosophical positions or points of reference used to encapsulate the pent-up feelings of people struggling to define themselves and become free, self-governing people who control their destinies.
