Exploring Black Sexuality provides an overview of the myths and stereotypes that surround Black sexuality and an analysis of how Euro-Americans developed these myths as part of a strategy to enslave and exploit Afro-Americans in the new world. It explores various dimensions of Black sexuality, ranging from its roots in the popular culture fashioned out of slavery in the form of music, literature and films, same-sex behavior, sexual assault, interracial sex, dating styles, prostitution, pornography and how fame and money make a difference in sexual behavior. Based on current trends, the author predicts future sexual styles.
Occasionally ribald and often maddening, but sure to spark lively discussions and debates. Book Review Digest, August 01 2008 The dean of Black family studies has done it again through this scopic examination of Black sexuality in a society hopelessly committed to capital and profits over social justice and equality. Unlike recent books on Black sexuality, which are concerned with gaining university tenure and positioning Black scholars vis-a-vis whites in practically all-white academic departments, Staples captures the sexual mores, folkways, and values among African Americans. Like one of his earlier works, Black Masculinity, this book keeps it real and should be required reading. -- Anthony J. Lemelle, Jr., University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
