Get By: A Survival Guide for Black Gay Youth

To be a male who is both Black and Gay is often referred to as 'the greatest taboo'. Growing up with such a stigma presents the young African-American homosexual with a lifetime of dilemmas. This book gives Black Gay youth a comprehensive guide to embracing their identity and developing into a proud, strong, and powerful member of their communities. With chapters on coming out, staying healthy, Black Gay history, religion, safe sex, drugs, self-defense, and more, 'Get By: A Survival Guide for Black Gay Youth' serves to empower the young Black Gay male against rising adversity, and triumph in the face of multiple oppressions.

5This book might actually be one of my favorites of all time.  Sep 14, 2008
I completely agree with all the other reviews. This book was everything I was looking for. The author discusses every part of the black gay culture. Being a black gay college student I felt like I was having a conversation with one of my friends. If you're on the fence about this book buy it; you won't be disappointed.

5I can do it because of this book.  Mar 03, 2006
I got this book and opened it right away. I skipped to the chapter on downlow and coming out. It made me feel a lot better. I didn't come out yet, but I will, because it tells me how to do it safely, and with a backup plan. This book helped me a lot.
