Yet another fervent call to stem the tide of the African-American male crisis, which the author terms "a national emergency of monumental proportion." Despite being replete with grim statistics, the book is, in fact, a blueprint of a master plan for tackling the problem. In that sense, it is also replete with hope. The major message: We can't sit idle, we have to do something.
