Fear of Becoming a Man Richard Sutton

The tale of a young Black male and his struggles with understanding what becoming a man should be. He's also faced with the realization that no one had ever explained to him the difficulties of being a Black male. With no true positive role models to help combat the negative impact of society's degenerate depiction of Black men, he faces his arduous journey all while being raised amidst the urban decay of Philadelphia. He's desperately trying to figure it all out, while being counted out due to his educational challenges and his own personal insecurities. Not only is the fear relevant, the fear is real.
