Book Reviews of Bill Cosby Is Right
Book Review: The Genocide Is Not Only In Darfur
Summary: 5 Stars
As a black woman, I have never conceptualized the idea that we are destroying our own race. I have never connected to the concept that we as black people are the main culprits in the eradication of our own race. This young man is brilliant and courageous for having the gust to say enough is enough.
My brothers, the genocide is not only in Africa, but right here in our doorsteps. We are killing each other senselessly. Maxwell is 100% correct. My black brothers, you are committing genocide. Every time you abandoned your children and disconnect with your responsibilities, you are destroying your own race.
Summary of Bill Cosby Is Right
A shocking reality all parents should read."Jocelyn challenges parents to question themselves as to who is ultimately accountable for the interest of their children."-Dr. Daniel Moses, Founder of Book Source 4Kids, Inc.
"I'm talking about these people who cry when their son is standing there in an orange suit. Where were you when he was two? Where were you when he was twelve? Where were you when he was eighteen, and how come you don't know he had a pistol? And where is his father, and why don't you know where he is?" -Bill Cosby
In abusing Cosby, we blame everyone but ourselves for not being noble and decent parents. All of Cosby's history of contribution and love faces an onslaught of abuse. Here is one of our beloved leaders who, for more than half a century, has donated his life's work to loving and cherishing children and their families. Yet he is scorned for his demanding call to action. Assuming responsibility lies at the core of what Cosby stands for. Nothing frightens me more than the approach taken toward Bill Cosby and the realization that many are willing to place children in the shadows of civilization in exchange for their own dominance and wealth. These intellectual "giants" replace, with excuses and reproach, the common sense approach of embracing family values. They will fight to the end for the so-called "deprived," while the children remain invisible in their world of immature parents.
