Book Reviews of One of the Children: Gay Black Men in Harlem (Men and Masculinity, 2)
Book Review: Good intentions, but lacking.
Summary: 3 Stars
I like the authors style and perspective but when it comes to mere scientific methodology the author is lackinig in his investigation. Not a scientific approach at all and conclusions are a-priori. I rather he wrote a book about what he thinks black men in Harlem are than doing an investigation of sorts with only a control group. He only based his assumptions on a type and class of black men that would recommend to him others "like themselves". So you can't really define black men in Harlem if you only hang around with a similar group of guys that know one another all too well. Read it if you into black male sociology, but otherwise, nah.
