What's Really Going On? May 9, 2007

This is an excellent book. Reading this book gave me new insight into what is going on with our youth (African-American) in many inner-city neighborhoods. The results of the "slave" mentality is still very much alive today.
 Don't be a victim March 9, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I was a little reluctant to give a review of this book. My hesitation was due to the mixed emtoions I had after finishing it. One part of me wanted to go out and ask my "white" brothers and sisters if they even care about what is going on in the minds of their "black" brethren and how, even though they were not slave owners themselves, most of them continue to personify the self-proclaimed superiority that was the staple of the horrible act of slavery. Yet, on the other hand, after recognizing that I could be moved to such a thought I came to a profound realization: though I have come a long way from te ghettos of New Orleans, I still see myself as a victim to some degree. Brothers and sisters, I am here to tell you that we are not victims. This book, though insightful, reinforces and, I believe, indirectly gives validity to the feeling of victimhood that plagues the black community. So, Why did I give it four stars? Well, in order to understand the actions of today one must be willing to look back to the seeds that were sowed that day before. This book does that. But it does not say that we are not victims. YOU, brothers and sisters, are not victims! Again, this book is insightful, but it is easy for one to fall into the pits of anger after reading it. Right now, our race does not need any more anger. What we need is love, and that is something that victims are usually incapable of giving themselves and/or the people around them.

Dr. Akbar managed to capture so many issues that black people face today. Not only did he state the issues, but he also provided us with solutions or means of breaking the chains. After reading this book I was enlightened, devoted to change, share the information and make a difference in the lives of black people.
 Religious bigotry and black racism March 1, 2007
6 out of 16 found this review helpful
The author should have replaced the "Christian" with the world "psychological" in his title. He is deliberate in tricking you into reading it though. He should be honest and less cowardly and just say so in his title. I'm sorry I wasted my $8.30. I could have read some of Elijah Muhammad's old writings, from where he obviously got much or all of his "views." Even Muhammad would admit that he used anti-Christian language and anti-white racism to get our attention, so we would eventually do for ourselves. I actually would not give this book a star, but I had to or else Amazon wouldn't let me list my review.
