Publisher Description: 21st CENTURY PROTESTS: A HANDBOOK FOR BLACK AMERICA moves the smaller nation beyond a cycle of pain, protests, concessions, then return to the status quo with the larger US nation. The book features 12 economic-related strategies that represent pinpoint attacks on a system that allows marginal filtering of Black Americans up the economic hierarchy, while ensuring that over 25 percent of Black Americans remain locked out and without hope for advancement. In a Black Lives Matter era that perpetuates the old pattern of marching in the streets and verbal confrontations, 21st CENTURY PROTESTS provides a new path that reflects the spirit of the American Revolution and economic tit-for-tat strategies. When properly operationalized, 21st CENTURY PROTESTS can improve Black America's well-being now and into the future. |
