Todd Wooten's Book, 'White Men Can't Hump,' is a Stark Reality Check on Race & Politics in America
Chicago, IL (PRWeb) December 14, 2006 -- When Todd Wooten sat down to write "White Men Can't Hump (As Good As Black Men)" Volumes I and II (AuthorHouse Paperback ISBN: 9781425957438), he did not set out to offend or spread hatred. In fact he states throughout the book (http://www.whitemencanthump.com) that "Life is too short to hate." Wooten was simply tired of the continuous psychological and media lynching of Black men across the world, especially over the last four centuries, commencing with slavery, and continues today with the numerous incidents of bigotry and hatred that can be found via numerous media outlets across the nation.
Wooten has written this intelligent and intriguing book with the hope that one day Black men in America will no longer be viewed as unintelligent, unattractive, undesirable, uncivilized, and just plain old worthless. White Men Can't Hump addresses why Black men in America and across the Globe are perceived in such a negative way, and also explore the origins of this callous and sometimes calculated negativity.
The book's title White Men Can't Hump is based on the number one stereotypical topic of those who (in offices, bars and locker rooms) routinely use the male phallus as the punch line to their jokes. Wooten however does not stop there; he delves into the roles of past US presidents, Hollywood and Rap music, and much more. White Men Can't Hump is without doubt a comprehensive work that scholars, intellects and those that may never read a book in their lives should examine.
For the reader to further understand White Men Can't Hump, they should know that Todd Wooten is a Black man who grew up in a small country town in Central Ohio. After graduating from high school, Wooten enlisted in the U.S. Marines/Ranger/S.E.R.E. (4 years honorable discharge), worked as a prison guard, a bouncer, a mall cop, a paramedic, and fourteen years as a firefighter. Throughout his journey he has met people from all 50 states, of numerous different Races, and from every walk of life.
Divided into two volumes, White Men Can't Hump (As Good As Black Men) is set to be a classic. See for yourself what the world is talking about visit: (http://www.whitemencanthump.com) now to purchase copies and read samples, and even leave your feedback.

The Evercare(R) Survey: Chronic Illness, Chronic Silence, released today, showed that we can add "giving advice on managing a long-term or advanced illness" to the list of subjects Americans are reluctant to discuss with a friend or loved one. The new survey finds that Americans are as unlikely to talk to a friend or loved one about better managing a chronic illness as they are to discuss politics or religion. Evercare is one of the nation's largest care health coordination programs for people who have long-term or advanced illness, are older or have disabilities.
