Who's Afraid of Post-Blackness?: What it Means to Be Black Now by Touré

Jan 28, 2012 Mignon Ariel King rated it 4 of 5 stars Recommends it for: Cultural studies students; Anyone who needs a clue

So far, I'm amazed. The book is dedicated to "anyone who was ever made to feel not Black enough. Whatever that means." Thank you, Brother!

This book answers all the obnoxious questions asked of people like me, Black Americans with unique personalities and unique ways of "being Black" without insulting our ancestors or asking anyone for permission or a set of guidelines.

I was really digging this audiobook at the beginning, particularly chapter 3 which focuses on the impact of Chapelle's Show. As it went on, some bits resonated, others didn't (for me, personally).

(My other favorite bit is a great postscript to Chapter 6, exploring the etymology of "M-therf-cker". It blew my mind).

If you're at all interested in the state of "blackness" in post-Obama America, this is a pretty good survey of the multiplicity of perspectives inherent in any consideration of what th...more

Lackluster. I expected more from this title. Toure is a good writer (most of the time) and a pretty observant critic, but his analysis is unimaginative and too often defined by his desire to prove that he's just as black as anybody else. Also, he relies extensively on a very small range of black scholars/scholarship, the usual lineup: Gates, West, Harris-Perry/Lacewell/Whatever. For somebody so adamant that black folk are heterogeneous, he wasted a lot of ink on a sort of homogenous liberal blac...more

This is a great book. I don't think Toure broke any new ground in this book. Rather, he provided comfort to those who think like him. A coming-out party if you will. All too often, Blacks who do not think or act "Black" (whatever that means) find themselves persecuted by their own race.

The biggest issue that I have is the chapter on how to have more Pres. Obamas. Toure sets the book up to say that it's okay to be post-Black. Indeed, he encourages people to be who they are not conform to any type...more

--Quote from Toure’ book entitled “Who’s Afraid of Post-Blackness”

Toure’ s book entitled Who’s Afraid of Post-Blackness paints the picture of contemporary Black people in America. To note, Toure’ capitalizes Blackness to make the point that Blackness, which contrary to whiteness, is indicative to a certain ethnic groups—African Americans. Where as whiteness is not specific enough to monitor a proper noun because there are simply too many ethnic groups of white people: Irish, French, Italian, Germen, American, etc…Thus, to compliment Toure’ s audacity and undercurrent of reverse racism, I too will capitalize Blackness.

Post-Blackness according to Harold Ford, the former Tennessee Congressman: “Post-Blackness means being an American. Being as broad and as full an American as you can be.” Then what is an American? An American is defined as a rugged individualist whom forefathers crossed the ocean blue for religious, ethnic, social freedom from governmental rule.

Toure’ goes too far in depicting Americans as conservative whites whom hate Blackness both pre and post. He describes America has an international political “bully.” He even goes beyond reason when he writes that America, as a whole, deserved to be attacked on September 11, 2001 (911) for the injustices American has done both internationally and domestically. As a personal disclaimer, Toure denounces the justification of 911 but does believe there are sediments in the Black community who find some level of justification on the 911 attacks.

Toure’ book is disappointing from the perspective of an amateur sociologist who believes in Martin Luther King Jr’s dream a “man [should] be judge by the content of his character, not by the color of his skin.” Toure’ advocating victimization for black people to dwell on racism and to mourn for the “murder of your soul” by believing “white supremacy” is afraid of post-Blackness.

White people are not afraid of Blackness. White people have embraced Blackness has part of Americana. White people are grateful for the diversity of Blackness for which has strengthen America’s legacy—as being the freest, greatest and most powerful country the world has ever known. America is a melting pot of ethnicity and Blackness is as much apart of America as America is part of Blackness. America cannot be segregated from Blackness. We American are not defined by what color our skin is but the content of our rugged individualism to achieve and fight for our inalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

To counter-act the reverse racism for which Toure’ evitably portrays in his book “Who’s Afraid of Post-Blackness, I offer a more positive outlook upon the great history of Blackness in America by entitling a book: Why Slavery is the Best Thing that Happened to Black Americans.

I just finished reading and wasn't terribly impressed. The subtitle of the book is "What It Means to be Black Now" and I think that's misleading as the book has interviews and experiences of the Black Elite and Intellectuals so I don't think it's representative of the mainstream rank and file in this country.

When pop-culture writer Toure was a student at Emory, a fellow student told him that he wasn't black. That verbal attack--obviously a defining moment in his life-- was the catalyst for this book "Who's Afraid of Post-Blackness?"

In this book, he calls on a bunch of blacks with bold-faced names -- Malcolm Gladwell, Cornel West, Skip Gates, Thelma Golden, David Paterson and even an ex-boyfriend of mine--to talk about what it means to be black post-Obama. Basically, Toure fills the book with a bunc...more

It's almost a 'how to behave yourself' manual fit for all races. I'd like to believe everyone would read this and we would all get our shit together.

There are aspects of race that we humans will always react to. There has been and always will be tribes because "birds of a feather do indeed flock together." Human-kind has also always proved that it is willing to behave in mean and ugly ways. So, hoping that suddenly we will all be nice is wasted hope, but yet I still do hope.

Having typed that, I do acknowledge that many of us are trying to do better at reducing the intensity of hate between black America and white America. I really have difficulty using the words white and black to describe people. Lay a piece of paper beside a black shoe and ask yourself; "Have I ever seen a human being that is really black or white?" No, we are all some shade of brown. There aren't any red or yellow humans either.

This book shows us some of the ways we as a society have improved how we behave with regard to having enslaved or having been enslaved. It also tells us about some ways in which we are still phucking things up.

Overt racism has diminished in part because of technology. Forensic science has made it easier to determine guilt and cameras provide a video witness to many more acts of hate. Education has reduced the lies of stereo-typing that have been created and perpetuated by both races. Perhaps with more education and technology and determination, we can eliminate the 'N' word and two 'R' words......nigger, redneck, and retard.

Another factor that has diminished racism is that the older haters, both black and white, are dying off. Yes, young people today of both races are still taught to hate, but much of that hate is dying with the older haters. As a side note.....I am aged 61 years and still get a ration of crap from older men telling me to "Go get a haircut." The thought has popped into my mind more than once; "Maybe I'll have some peace when all you old pharts are dead."

None of us are totally void of racism. We can however learn to respect each other and live together in peace. Let us all find our balance. It starts with you and me.....mgc(less)

Mixing the words of 105 interviewees with autobiographical details, Touré makes the case for a post-Black America, one in which there is no 'authentic' Blackness. There are 40 million Black Americans and 40 million ways to be Black, as Henry Louis Gates Jr. puts it.

You simply write the words down like ants marching across the paper in rows, black letter and white space, one element after another, paragraph and page and chapter. Do it long enough, and you have a book. Do it well, and people will buy it.

But do it as Touré has done, and you have something that is more than a book of words. You have the soul of a man poured out like water on dry ground, reviving, coloring, refreshing, healing--if you listen. Even when it's hard to listen.

This book, "Who's Afraid of Post-Blackness," is a work of depth and passion, anger and frustration and humor, an exploration of the twin poles of Blackness and Blankness, of being Black in America and being a Black who is American, of the paradox of being an instantly identifiable class and being perhaps one of 45 million unique individuals swimming in the larger sea of 170 million indifferent, unlistening souls.

Every word rings true even as there are multiple definitions, sometimes contradictory, of what it means to be Black--and what it means now, in an age where "Black" is further divided and defined to incorporate Clarence Thomas and Barack Obama. Who's truly Black? Who defines? How does it matter?

There's a lot to absorb here. It's built from countless hours of interviews by Touré of people in America who happen to be Black, who see themselves as Black, who embrace Blackness, who struggle with Blackness, who have simply lived a life as a Black person in this country which has both fed them and abused them, who have lived an uncontrolled, original Black life in freedom. Artists, statesmen and -women, doctors, lawyers, CEOs, and ordinary people like your neighbors with uncommented lives share their stories of what it means to them to be Black and to live Black.

The part of Post-Blackness, I think, refers to the idea that the old definition of being "Black" is being replaced by a newer, freer definition. It's beyond the old boundaries that kept things separated and predictable. It's the discussion of breaking away from a sense of restriction or reservation, to a newer or different place where being Black is something common and unremarkable and perfectly ordinary, without the sense of being taboo or secret or even alien to America itself.

There will continue to be the idea of Blackness, Touré argues, but it won't be the same as it used to be.

I bought this book based upon the advice of friends who wanted to correct my ignorance about the landmine of race identity in America. Usually I read a book of this length in a few hours or even a day or so. I've been reading this slowly, chewing on the ideas, thinking through the challenges, trying to see through the eyes of the Other, feeling my way through the experiences. I appreciate the honesty and rawness of this book, that it's not prettified or made more acceptable or understandable to people like me, who have to ask these questions. I'd not heard of Touré before I read this book, and yet I feel like I know him a little more now, that maybe I could understand him a bit better, that when he talked about stuff that was important to him--or just talked about anything at all, really--I'd have a little more insight into him.

A very good, solid, provoking book.

Note: I've used the terms "Black" and "Blackness" as capitalized in the book. (less)

The book is equals parts social commentary and autobiographical musings from a cadre of Black stars in the sky of American Africana. Post-Blackness as a definable thing is constantly changing and based on a generational set-point—for example, being born in the 80’s, I am not familiar at all with critical ‘white gaze’ or could never imagine being afraid to eat friend chicken or watermelon in front of a White person—these thoughts have never crossed my mind. My parents never told me I had to be better, do better, than any White person or other any person; just to do my best and to be myself. Blackness was never considered a stumbling block, nor has other people’s ignorance based on my melanin ever become my own personal issue. Is this post-Black thinking? Racism is shocking in the sense of “Damn, people still on that dumb shit?” not that it affects me constantly; classism and homophobia constitute the microagressions in my life. Would this also be a post-Black problem?

I wish he went into more details of his own personal experiences before adding in his interviews. His life sketches were interesting enough on their own. However, Touré completely lost some cool points—and needs a whole punched in his Black card—for allowing the “How to Build More Baracks” or rather as it should have been titled “How to Be Sellout Magic Negro to Gain Power and Influence People”. That chapter was a painful read. Basically to gain this nebulous power—not sure it is political, economic, or social; maybe a combination of all three—in America as a post-Black person you need not to strike fear in the hearts of White(supremacist) folks, have any human failings, possess a baby face (seriously!?), and be the best Uncle Thomas you can be! Sorry, but if anyone of any race holds White supremacist ideals then they should be exposed and feel guilty for holding such ignorance—at the very minimum. If my melanin, words, and actions arouse guilt in a White supremacist then I am doing my job. Other than that one chapter of pure treacherous (traitorous ) fuckery, the book ends on good note—the idea that American Black people now have the emotional and personal space to define themselves as themselves for their own benefits or detriments like any truly free group of a people.

It's clear that incident scarred him and I'm sure he may have had other similiar verbal fire balls tossed his way. So, he writes a book in which he posits, that the circle has expanded to include every black person living, no matter what their ideology or worldview. He champions individualism while making references to black people as a group. A bit confusing. He also suggests that the way to the promised land, especially in politics, is to acquiesce to racism; i.e. make whites feel comfortable.

These thoughts make the book quite flawed for me. A more apt title might have been, RUNNING FROM BLACKNESS: AND LOOK HOW MANY PEOPLE AGREE WITH ME! There are absolutely no dissenting voices that could have made for a more interesting discussion. He mentions having read Molefi Asante and Maulana Karenga, but they are not interviewed for his book. Surely they would have a different spin on post-blackness. He talks about those who have a love/hate relationship with America, and states you can't hate America and not ending up hating yourself. Huh? For African decendants, the root is not America, it's Africa. A major of African studies and a reader of Malcolm would be clear on that. There is an African proverb that states, " no matter how long the wood remains in the water, it will never become a crocodile."

Toure's confusion is evident, because not only does he think we are crocodiles, but we live on land. If blackness is whatever one says it is, then it is in essence nothing at all. If the choice of a lifemate can affirm Obama's blackness than it would follow that one who makes the opposite choice is nullifying blackness. You can't have it both ways, or all ways as Toure wants it. The lone somewhat disagreeable voice comes ironically from the white Yale history professor, Robert Farris Thompson. He states in the outtakes, apparently he couldn't make the cut, "I am not big on post-blackness....Black culture is forever and therefore never post."

If you are running from blackness, you will love this book, and Toure will be your Moses. But if you are running towards Africa, keep your money in your pocket and avoid the landmine of disappointment.(less)

There were some really interesting ideas about identity construction and interpreting race in America in a post-Obama age. But it was really spoiled for me by Touré's personality--chiefly his class privilege that pervaded the entire book, and that he seemed to be oblivious of. He comes off as very defensive and preachy throughout the whole thing, and the few pages that were about him going to Africa made me want to throw the book across the room.

This is a really great discussion of Black American culture and identity now. Touré talks to over 100 artists, media makers, academics, politicians and other notables and there are a lot of ideas going on here. I kind of arched an eyebrow at the title and I would question some of his conclusions but for the most part his approach is more exploratory than didactic and it's well-written. I will be looking up a lot of the artists he mentions.

I feel the appropriate rating for this book is "resonant". Toure's exploration of what "post-Blackness" is speaks to all Americans and could apply to any minority group in certain cases. I think it is also important for white people to read to get a better understanding of where we as Americans are in terms of race relations and also to understand that Black American culture is and has always been intertwined with American culture as a whole.

Plenty to think about, whatever stereotypes you apply to other people
or find applied to you. The book is strongest where it stays with
one person's experience for a while, though Toure worked hard to weave
together quotations from most if not all of the 105 Black people he
interviewed for the book. There are short bios of all of them, as well
as 14 pages of "Outtakes" at the end of the main text.
