The Book of Obsidian: A Manual for the 21st Century Black American Gentleman

by Mumia Obsidian Ali

Overview

Over the past decade, there have been many things said and written about the state of "Black Love" - some good and in many cases, mostly bad. No one had the balls to say what so badly needed to be said...until now. After more than a decade of the most intense boots on the ground study of relationships and the science of human mating, Mumia Obsidian Ali - one of the founding fathers of the Black Manosphere and longtime podcaster, talk radio host, blogger and writer - finally weighs in and gives his take. "The Book of Obsidian" is an unflinchingly honest look at the state of dating and mating in 21st century Black America - and it ain't pretty. Definitely not for the faint of heart or the politically correct that's so prone to being "triggered" these days, Ali's book is a hands-on manual that gives today's Black man the tools to navigate the minefield that is "Black Love" today. Read the book if you dare - and transform your life!
