我今天早上听说过这本书在电台作者, 对他好,他有一本书出来. 此外, 教授的话是很强大 – 我喜欢听他说话更.
不过, 这不是在19世纪. 因此,, 前盖让我畏缩和这里的原因…
书的封面专门描绘了女子站在背后的男人, why couldn’t she have been standing beside her man? Are they not equals?
Seems to perpetuate the viewpoint that women are seen as less equal than their African-American male counterparts.
Real women stand beside their men, not behind a man. A man who genuinely respects and appreciates his woman fully, wants her to stand beside him since he sees her as his other/better half, and a woman who knows her worth would have it no other way.

Whats wrong with a woman standing behind her man. Thats the problem. People look at everything from a power perspective. Women need to stand behind their men and when the time comes for men to stand behind their women they will do the same. 这个说法WE ARE EQUALS.

约翰尼,
停止与荒谬和有心计.
因此,, 你基本上是说,你的要求和期望一个女人有你的背部在任何时候,但你没有她回来的回报? 这似乎是你提出的一点,. 听起来像是一个双重标准.
如果你和她都等于像你说的, 那么那么你们之间的权力共享. 这是不正确的?
现在的问题变成, 你为什么如此害怕分享,并有你的女人在你身边和她能回来?
答案是如此昭然若揭. 没有真正的男人谁完全有他的女人的背会让她 (也不指望她) 采取说唱为他和她都坐在监狱的东西,她没有做. He mans up and takes full responsibility for his own actions.

@ Average Gal. This is a street novel. Most street novels show their women holding them down, when everyone else is against them. It is not unusual for a woman to be standing “behind” her man in the streets. Lying and saying that he was with her when the murder was committed. Hiding drugs in the baby pamper when she goes to visit her man in jail. Taking the rap for a crime, because she’ll receive a slap on the wrist, whereas her man would do hard time. This is what happens in the streets! A woman standing “behind” her man!
This book is no kid story! You’d have to know the streets, to know this book

avg girl i think your’re over analyzing my dear. i don’t want a woman to stand beside me, walk beside me, march beside me yes but i can’t protect her in that way. the phrase “我有你的背” 很受欢迎的一个原因… 我相信女人更聪明, 比男人强,请不要跟我个人的想法混淆盖… 现在,如果你只是一个消极的人清楚的东西完全不同.
笔者。.

因此,, 你说,一个女人走的是说唱男友的非法活动而导致自己被监禁或死亡是值得荣耀? 这就是你所谓的地位 “behind” her man?
这听起来就像买成黑人男性的媒体颂扬为街头暴徒, 难道你不同意?
听起来更像是街道一级的活动,导致该女子的倒台和非洲裔社区的消亡.
此外, the above type of mindset is probably why Zimmerman felt justified in shooting Trayvon Martin (even though it wasn’t right), because in Zimmerman’s mind Martin was nothing more than a stereotypical black street thug.

First off, any woman that loves her man takes the “rap” in one way or another. I took the “rap” for my ex-husband when he deserted the military and left me to raise his two children. My mother also “took the rap” when she became the help to support me . I do not dare to consider what caused Zimmerman to shoot an innocent youth. The problem was that he was not a thug nor did he warrant losing his life for wearing a hoodie. If you ever truly loved a Black Man, in some way or another you took the “rap”. If you haven’t yet you will. 我会站在我的儿子面前取子弹,我站在我的孙子面前的是没有暴徒! 女孩, 来吧, 现在, 希拉里·克林顿, 他站在男人, 没有了他一个暴徒?

Jurline,
你叫爱情? 我敢打赌,如果角色互换你的男人不会为你做的一样. 别开玩笑自己. 你会坐在那里在监狱里,然后你会被他的另外一个女人得到抛弃.

这个评论是针对一般加尔, 我觉得如果你收到了盖的所有错误消息. 作为一名黑人妇女, that is independent and is strong enough to stand behind her man. Doesn’t necessarily mean that I’m beneath him, but more of him being my protector. In life, in the streets you would not want the situation to happen, but if your life is being threatened and your man stand in front of you to prevent something from happining to you, would you want to stand besides him then. All I’m saying is that its nothing wrong with wanting to be treated as a equal, but sometimes you have to stand behind your man. I feel if more women stood behind there men, then we would have a lot more of strong black men. Kevin I wish you nothing but success, I commend you on what you have accomplished. 继续努力吧

Latrice,
Are you kidding me? Stop with the excuses.
一个女人不能教一个人如何成为一个男人. 这是谁教男孩如何发展成为一个男人,如何支持和养活家人的父亲. 一个男孩学会如何从他的父亲一个人, 不是女人 (虽然她可能会尝试教他的赌注,因为她知道如何).
什么是这一切的男人的角色? 你知道,超过 70 黑人父亲的百分比由非裔美国人的家园缺失? 这些人需要有自己的孩子的背影, 他们的女人的背, 站起来的男人和支持他们的孩子和家庭. 这是双向的.

Kevon是从他的未来讲这个故事是真实的. I am a retired Supervising Children’s Social Worker and spent much of my career working in South Central Los Angeles. I retired from the Compton Office. I know first hand about the foster care system how it sets up Black and Brown Youth to fail. I AM PROUD OF HIS ACCOMPLISHMENTS. I am from Chicago and lost many relatives to gang violence. As far as the women standing behind her man, I do not feel as it is demeaning in any way. It is educational in the sense that many of the people working the “systems” have no clue about our community, our culture, our sense of pride! 因此, they hold on the the negative mainstream images that are played out nightly on the news! I am supporting Kevon as his story will provide foster youths still trapped into into an unfair heartless system. 我是一个社会活动家和信念,只有这样,事情会改变告诉它喜欢它确实是. 今晚有一个反弹,在西洛杉矶
教会两个青年枪杀 !!!!!!! 我们正在采取街头. Kevon小说出来在我们国家的关键时刻. 我刚刚从萨克拉门托游说返回一个新的法案AB1611该地址中的非洲裔和拉丁裔青年寄养种族差异!!!!!! 关注和支持!
