520    "Our Black Sons Matter is a powerful collection of 
       original essays, letters, and poems that addresses both 
       the deep joys and the very real challenges of raising 
       black boys today. From Trayvon Martin to Tamir Rice, the 
       list of young black men who have suffered racial violence 
       continues to grow. Young black people also deal with 
       profound stereotypes and structural barriers. And yet, 
       young black men are often paradoxically revered as icons 
       of cultural cool. Our Black Sons Matter features 
       contributions from women across the racial spectrum who 
       are raising or have raised black sons--whether 
       biologically their sons or not. The book courageously 
       addresses painful trauma, challenges assumptions, and 
       offers insights and hope through the deep bonds between 
       mothers and their children. Both a collective testimony 
       and a collective love letter, Our Black Sons Matter sends 
       the message that black lives matter and speaks with the 
       universal love of all mothers who fear for the lives of 
       their children."--Provided by publisher.
