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.

5I Love This Book!!!  Sep 08, 2007
I got a huge relieve when I found out I wasn't alone, it made me so happy. I'm glad I have this book to be my guide, and I can read it over and over when I want comfort...

5I can do it because of this book.  Mar 04, 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.
