Black Boys to Black Men: a Tumultuous Journey

By John L. Hunter

This book is fiction, yet it describes the plight of so many young black boys in real life, who grow up with a sense of making fast money, women, drinking and drugs. They try to grow up too fast and as a result they end up in jail. This is such a story and you will be intrigued by the struggle Jason goes through trying to find himself as a man. After you read this story you come away with a feeling of sadness and despair about the plight and failure of so many young black men who are struggling today to find themselves.
