Detailed item info
| Synopsis Hill Harper has previously penned a pair of popular books dedicated to helping young African-American men and women to deal with the unique challenges they face. Now he brings the genders together for a nationwide conversation to explore and eliminate the communication gaps which have already ruined too many relationships. Harper suggests that blacks in America have been able to endure so much hardship and oppression because they traditionally had a strong family unit to support them when society did not. Now that blacks have finally begun to acquire some semblance of equality, the family structure is beginning to dissolve, as more and more African-American children are being raised in single-parent homes. Harper identifies the communicative barriers which have created this pattern of dissension between black romantic partners, and outlines the simple changes which every couple should make to communicate better and strengthen their relationship.
Publisher's Note In his first book for adults, the New York Times bestselling author sparks honest dialogues between men and women, in the tradition of Steve Harvey's Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man. Only 34 percent of African-American children today are raised in two- parent households, a sharp contrast to 1966, when 85 percent of black children were raised by two parents. In provocative but heartfelt words, Hill Harper takes on these urgent challenges, bringing a variety of issues out of the shadows. In The Conversation, Harper speaks to women and men with clear-eyed perspective, covering topics such as: Â?The roots of the breakdown in the black family Â?The myth that there are no mature, single, black male professionals Â?What women can do to alleviate the "heaviness" they sometimes attach to dating Â?What men can do to break the cycle of being a player Â?The difference between sex and intimacy Â?Bridging the communication gap Â?Self-worth and net worth, and why you should never settle for an unworthy partner Capturing the conversations Harper and his friends frequently have, this book is destined to be one of Harper's most healing contributions. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
