"BROTHERS," are the common observations made on the author's travels and visits to cities in North America; Hawaii; Alaska; Canada; Central American; Korea; Germany; and the Caribbean, by a person of color. It provides a perspective of the black community, to include unemployment; poverty; welfare; the black musical experience; and a point of view concerning the Anti-black racism that has been present in this country since its founding.
