Black People: For Entertainment Purposes Only
W. Ivan Wright
Able Journey Press
What?-the purpose of black people is for America’s entertainment?
Allow this suspense thriller to introduce you to its main character, Jurney
Swiftwood, an author, whose book has inflamed the African American
community. All because his book infers that the sole function of blacks is
for this country’s amusement.
A politically sanctioned murder plot only adds to Jurney’s dilemma as the
blood soon ribbons its way from its newest victim -still seeking Jurney.
Adding to Jurney’s angst is the veiled tension that has developed between he
and his lover, Selena Conway. When Jurney discovers that he is the father of
a nine-year-old daughter, the veil is dropped and the two must come to a new
maturity.
Seasoned characters and introspective dialogues are woven within the story
that reconnect the reader to once-embraced values. Warm literary scenes give
evidence to the awesome power of perception and how our elders understood
this oft-hidden power.
Careful -when this book speaks of perception and the questions regarding
America’s entertainment Rolodex, it is not primarily directed towards white
America. Indeed, it is the perception via the lens of black America that
profoundly dictates our social positioning and therefore, our children’s
vision of life’s horizons.
List Price: $15.95 - Price: $10.85 - You Save: $5.10 (32%)
