Black Men Still Exist (Paperback)

Deeply concerned that a high percentage of African American men seem to be falling short of living a meaningful existence in today's society, David J. Ramsey digs into his people's colorful past in an attempt to explain their present predicament. Through a series of interviews with black men as well as women, Ramsey uncovers factors such as coping with abandonment and abuse, and the lack of guidance and support. Giving much emphasis to the significance of nurturing the family and responsible parenting, Ramsey also addresses the various issues encountered in relationships-from the fundamentals of love, courtship, and marriage to the excuses for infidelity. Infused with insightful advice and well-placed criticism, as well as anecdotes interspersed throughout, Black Men Still Exist seeks to reveal some of the compelling reasons behind a black man's nature, encouraging the reader on a path to self-awareness, or self-improvement, where integrity, respect, and maintaining a sense of pride in one's culture and race are of utmost importance.
