The Covenant with Black America

Where do we go from here? As we quickly approach critical mass in the black community, a breath of fresh air is extended by one of the most prominent thinkers in America, Mr. Tavis Smiley.

His new book, The Covenant, is a national plan of action to address the primary concerns of African Americans today. "From health to housing, from crime to criminal justice, from education to economic parity, African Americans continue to face devastating disparities on nearly every level. However the time has come for African Americans to shift the conversation from talking about our pain to talking about our plan."
