A Black Man's Worth

Book excerpt: Life changing, A Black Man’s Worth: Conqueror and Head of Household by psychotherapist and advocate Dr. Dwayne L. Buckingham offers cognitive-behavioral techniques and spiritual guidance to inspire Black males to become R.E.A.L. Men by conquering internalized oppression through self-reflection, community empowerment and spiritual growth. As our nation strives to address and resolve political, social and economic injustices we must also address the psychological disposition of Black males. America is respected for its power, acceptance of diversity and humanitarian concern for all humans; but unjust racial, social and economic issues continue to negatively affect many Americans, especially Black males. This powerful book helps Black males from all walks of life understand the meaning of their lives and equips them with tools to cope with adversity positively. Take heed, Black men are resilient, Black men are strong, and Black men are amazing—they are Conquerors.
