More About This Book

Overview

Love Won't Let Me Be Silent is a collection of writings, short stories, and poems, exploring the experiences and trials of parenthood from an African-American gay male perspective and sensitively chronicles Mason's search for love and self-hood. These masterfully creative writings express candidly the views of countless gay African-Americans who are vibrant with the faith and energy of America's Black Church yet bristling with the pain and anger of America's racial and homophobic injustice. While many still speculate over whether Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., would have supported gay rights, Mason boldly points out that it is absolutely inconceivable that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., would endorse anything that smacks of discrimination and bigotry against any group since it is opposed to everything he believed in as a humanitarian and Civil Rights leader.


Mason is an extraordinary poet who eloquently expands and redefines the traditional idea of the love poem in creative and ingenious ways. Each poem, story, and article is suffused with restoration, history, love, and ferocious courage! He also gives us an honest glimpse into the life of a young "Angel Mason" who experienced the pangs of growing up in a not-so-tolerant world as an African-American gay teen.


America has barely smoothed its feathers, ruffled badly last year by the California Supreme Court's initial decision to lift the ban on gay marriage, followed by a divisive election that reversed the decision and placed the matter again before the California Supreme Court for repeal. These chilling events led to an epiphany that compelled him to write Love Won't Let Me Be Silent. These electrifyingwritings are destined to make him one of the foremost voices of the African-American gay experience. We have no doubt that the artistry and enduring vision that Mason demonstrates in this inspiring book will cause a revolutionary awakening in America and continue to influence our culture, reshape our thinking, and touch our hearts and lives for decades.

    If M.L.K. had a Protege...

    Out of every struggle for Equal Rights, 1 powerful voice comes forth alone & represents millions to stand up for the basic rights for every human being. Finally, today's generation has receives their just do. Author, Terry Angel Mason has beautifully chronicled the events that have shaped & molded his reality as not just a Black Gay man in America but also a Christian. I innocently picked it up thinking it was going to be a steamy love story because of the cover art. Much to my dismay, from the Introduction I was encouraged not to be silent about my juxtoposition in our coutry anymore simply because I am uniquely made! Thank you Mr. Mason for sharing his truths, triumphs & troubles concerning Gay Love & Life in a sincerely wise, profound book of messages that echoes Gandhi, Martin Luther King & Nelson Mandela.
