Why are single-parent families so prevalent in the Black community? Why do so many Black boys under-achieve in school? Why are Black people disproportionately diagnosed with Schizophrenia? Why do even well-qualified Black men struggle to find employment? And why do other ethnic-minority communities seem to fare better? Its NOT all due to racism! In this book, journalist and cultural critic Lee Pinkerton, not only answers these questions, but also offers practical suggestions to parents of young Black men (or those who work with them), on how to avoid these pitfalls.

Lee Pinkerton was born in London in 1969, the child of Jamaican and Guyanese immigrants. After studying Sociology and Psychology at University he spent the 90s as a music journalist, first as a freelancer for magazines such as Mix Mag, Echoes, and Hip-Hop Connection and then as the Arts Editor for The Voice – ‘Britain’s Best Black newspaper’. In addition to this he also wrote a book the Many Faces of Michael Jackson published by Ozone books in 1997. Drawing on his own experiences and observations working in Prisons and in Psychiatric hospitals after leaving the media, as well as extensive academic research, The Problem With Black Men examines the causes of the social problems facing Black men in Britain and America today.
