Book Reviews of Black Haze: Violence, Sacrifice, and Manhood in Black Greek-Letter Fraternities (African American Studies)

Book Review: Nice book
Summary: 4 Stars

Before becoming apart of an organization one must have a real view of themselves in order to accept the POSITIVE (there is negative) change that some of these organizations have to offer. I appreciate this book because it gave me the basis to converse about change and being better role models. We come from different backgrounds and to be able to mesh personalities for the greater good of the community is a wonderful thing. Although I disagree with physical hazing to the extent of pain one should be educated on the benefits of physical wellness (one could do push ups and be a leader of a group which in turn may give him/her the tools necessary to being a leader in their community. Nevertheless, it was a nice book.
