Entrepreneur and author to debut first chapter of controversial book about blacks in America for free at official website

James Hooks is going to reveal an early look at his upcoming book, “Suicide: How Modern Black Culture Is Destroying Black American Progress”, on April 30th, 2010 at http://www.jameshooks.com

The chapter, named “Monuments”, compares the struggles of civil rights leaders of the 1960s to the selfishness of hip-hop artists of today, and how their leadership has trickled down to effect black culture in different ways.

In “Suicide”, James Hooks deals with the change in direction in African-American culture, from the progressive civil rights movement of the 1950's and 60's to the materialism and lack of educational standards of today. He also tackles what he calls “Obamanoxiousness”, a character trait of blacks who celebrate the election of America's first African-American president with a sense of entitlement as opposed to a sense of accomplishment.

“We still have a lot of exciting things happening with the 'Suicide' project that we cannot reveal yet,” said James Hooks, “so by releasing the first chapter early, we hope to give people a glimpse of not just what the book is about, but what the movement is about.

“What we will be revealing at my site is not just a snippet, a glimpse, but the entire chapter for free.”

By naming his book “Suicide”, set to be released as part of the Suicide Project in 2011, James Hooks points to the downfall of African-American culture entirely as self-driven, and the blame lies solely on their own feet - particularly taking aim at such African-American pop culture icons as 50 Cent and Souljah Boy Tell 'Em.

With a shocking title, stunning imagery, and a final project proven to both shock and suspend, “Suicide: How Modern Black Culture Is Destroying Black American Progress” will prove to get people involved.
