The Before Columbus Foundation 2018 Winner of the AMERICAN BOOK
AWARD Tommy J. Curry's provocative book The Man-Not is a
justification for Black Male Studies. He posits that we should
conceptualize the Black male as a victim, oppressed by his sex. The
Man-Not, therefore,is a corrective of sorts, offering a concept of
Black males that could challenge the existing accounts of Black men
and boys desiring the power of white men who oppress them that has
been proliferated throughout academic research across disciplines.
Curry argues that Black men struggle with death and suicide, as
well as abuse and rape, and their genred existence deserves study
and theorization. This book offers intellectual, historical,
sociological, and psychological evidence that the analysis of
patriarchy offered by mainstream feminism (including Black
feminism) does not yet fully understand the role that
homoeroticism, sexual violence, and vulnerability play in the
deaths and lives of Black males. Curry challenges how we think of
and perceive the conditions that actually affect all Black males.
