Open Mike on a Saturday Night

Well here I am on this Saturday night/Sunday morning reading one of the best books I have ever read, Open Mike by MICHAEL ERIC DYSON-Reflections on Philosophy, Race, Sex, Culture and Religion. He keeps it real. I am only on Chapter One and I must say his ideology really stimulates my mind..makes me deeply question my views on some complex and pressing issues....

He has one foot within the "academy" and one foot rooted in the "ghetto", and as my favorite cultural anthropologist, Stuart Hall states, "...Dyson brings a high critical and spiritual intelligence to bear on the contemporary dilemmas of black folk."

Get the book.. ISBN #0465017657
