So many aspects of life that get taken for granted have sadly been used as tools or weapons to instill a negative outlook on a group of people in the United States. From the earliest times of the fledgling nation to the modern era, education, economic status and even sex have been used to create double standards amongst people of different races. Readers will genuinely be shocked by some of the facts and quotes used throughout the book, as they showcase the horrendous way sex and sexuality was viewed by white people throughout history in regards to anyone of color, in particular black people and Black Americans in particular. As someone who has so powerful advocated for equality throughout my life, I was engaged from the first page on how something like sex has even been used in such a negative way. Whether it was disturbing quotes showcasing strange studies done by researchers on the anatomy of black men, upsetting quotes from historical figures that to this day or still revered, or even honest tales from the author himself on people, men in particular , have always had a fascination with studying the anatomy of another man, this novel touched on some real and powerful imagery and topics that deserve discussion.
