In his essays, lectures, sermons, and books, Eric Dyson has emerged as one of the leading African-American voices of our day. Bringing together his writings on music, religion, politics, and identity, and offering a multi-faceted view of black life, this collection charts the progress of Dyson's own soul alongside the progress and pain of African Americans over the past decade. Opening with a letter to his brother, who is serving life in prison on a murder charge, he goes on to discuss themes and figures ranging from sexuality and the black family, to Michael Jordan, Ice Cube, and O.J. Simpson.

Review:
"These essays represent Dyson at his best, showing us his special affinity for black popular culture, his perspective as a minister, and his clear powers of analysis. He is the best of the new generation, and everyone interested in black culture - especially young people - will want to own this book." -- Henry Louis Gates, Jr.
