Summary: A true eye opener!
Comment: This book is a true eye opener of the underlying word of black middle class status. Even though this book was written over 40 years ago, it is very much relevant today. Now I know the "true" meaning to the word socialite. And believe me, it has nothing to do with "true" class.

Summary: Now I understand!
Comment: Once again through the pages of racism comes another great novel, 'The Black Bourgeoisie.' The author Edward Franklin Frazier whom has written many other books such as: Negro Family in the United States, E. Franklin on Race Relations and Race and Culture Contacts in the Modern World has truly captured writing.
Through this novel Frazier deals with race among his own people. One can see through the words that it is a very passionate subject that he speaks of. Bringing the reader as close to his understanding as possible. Frazier does this quite effectively through the descriptive words that he uses. The novel tackles all the issues and questions that many black individuals need to know or are curious about. Why some black individuals act like they are better than some of their black people and the Oreo issue.
This book is quite the read and worth the time for black individuals as well as Caucasians. It is a novel that opens the mind to a different way of dealing with the issue of selling out and what the term actually means. Frazier leaves no doors unclosed, explains and ventures the race issue in America. Through the reading of this book one can learn a lot, widen their horizon and relate upon the issue of racism.
Rating: 5
Summary: A Must Read/ A Must Own
