Daddy, We Need You Now!: A Primer on African-American Male Socialization

by Herman Sanders

Overview

Daddy, We Need You Now! focuses on the Black family and the patterns of socialization within it. It validates the role of 'responsible' fathers and provides empirical evidence that responsible fathers will make a positive difference in the lives of Black youth. It is a pragmatic manual for dealing with African-American social mobility, education patterns, and familial socialization. This book does not dwell on racism, class or the caste system, but rather on the role of the 'responsible' father who can make a positive difference in the lives of his children.
