Emmy Award-winning Fox News political commentator Juan Williams worries that many black Americans are surrendering to a "culture of failure." In this carefully articulated manifesto, he argues that traditional values of the civil rights era such as self-help, strong families and belief in God have been supplanted by a decadent hip-hop, dropout, end-up-in-jail culture that threatens to subvert hard-won gains. He castigates black leaders who prefer rhetoric to real-world solutions and admonishes parents to regard their children's education as a top priority.

I have to confess, I love Juan Williams. Well, except for the times I can’t stand him. I think the ratio is about 1 to 5. Juan and I do not share the same political frame of mind. But regardless of our political differences, I admire him immensely as an honest and honorable player in the media arena...
Wow..Wow..Wow..This book was FANTASTIC! Williams and Cosby were dead in this book. I can see, however, why this book received the backlash and criticism from black leaders.
