The first book to examine the full range of black life from the vantage point of psychiatry, this widely-acclaimed work has established itself as the classic statement of the desperation, conflicts, and anger of black life in America. 'Black Rage' tells of the insidious effects of the heritage of slavery; desribes love, marriage, and the family; addresses the sexual myths and fears of both blacks and whites; chronicles how schools fail the black child; examines mental illness among black people and the psychic stresses engendered by discrimination; and, finally, focuses on the miasma of racial hatred that envelops this country, why it exists, and what will surely happen if it is not soon dispelled.

after reading black rage i began asking black people had they ever felt like punching a white person. invariably the rage was repressed, but rage cannot remain repressed. i believe that a lot of the violence occurring in the black community is a result of the anger which is redirected toward fellow blacks instead of being channeled correctly. this book is beyond being a masterpiece. it should be standard reading for all black people in high school, but of course, most blacks have never heard ot it.
