Dungeons 'n' Durags: One Black Nerd's Comical Quest of Racial Identity and Crisis of Faith (Social commentary, Uncomfortable conversations)

نویسنده و پادکست مجله آبنوس، ران داوسون، شوخ طبعی و تفسیر اجتماعی خنده‌دار خود را برای بیان داستان این که چگونه یکی از "سفیدترین" و احمق ترین مرد سیاهپوست سرانجام از خواب بیدار شد، سیاهی خود را پیدا کرد و تمام محدودیت های خود را برای انداختن بمب اف را از دست داد.

داستانی به بلوغ رسیده است. هویت سیاه‌پوست. در حومه آتلانتا، رون یک نرد سیاه‌پوست (با نام مستعار \"blerd\") بود که در دنیای سفید خود بسیار راحت زندگی می‌کرد. او همسر سفیدپوست خود را دوست داشت، با همکارهای سفیدپوست خود به خوبی کار می کرد و در یک کلیسای سفیدپوست عبادت می کرد. در 8 نوامبر 2016، با تبدیل شدن ترامپ به POTUS همه چیز تغییر کرد. رون سفری برای کشف خود آغاز کرد که باعث شد همه چیز را زیر سوال ببرد

Author and Ebony Magazine podcaster Ron Dawson lends his wit and comical social commentary to tell the story of how one of the "whitest" and nerdiest of black men finally woke up, found his blackness, and lost all inhibitions at dropping the f-bomb.

A coming-of-age story of black identity. In the suburbs of Atlanta, Ron was a black nerd (aka "blerd") living very comfortably in his white world. He loved his white wife, worked well with his white workmates, and worshiped at a white church. On November 8, 2016, everything changed when Trump became POTUS. Ron began a journey of self-discovery that made him question everything—from faith to friendships.

Part social commentary and part fantastical narrative. This book goes where no blerd has gone before. In a psychedelic way, Ron is guided by a guardian "angel" in the guise of Samuel L. Jackson's character from Pulp Fiction. Sam is there to help Ron, well, be more black. Ron confronts his black "sins" and wrestles with black identity, systemic racism, and what it means to be "black" in America.

Throughout this book, you'll learn lessons from a man who deconstructs his faith and confronts personal demons of racial identity. Gain new perspectives through these funny stories that will reshape your current views on black identity.
