Loving Black Boys is not just a love letter to Tamura Lomax's own sons, but to all Black boys, men, fathers, and brothers. With understanding and urgency, Lomax writes honestly about Black endangerment and what it means to endure living in what James Baldwin called the burning house of white supremacist capitalist heteropatriarchal America. Seeing the full humanity of Black boys and men, and the liberation of all Black people, Lomax writes, requires a Black feminist lens. A companion piece to Freeing Black Girls, this book connects the everyday and extraordinary moments of Black mothering: phenomena as varied as the talk about police brutality, physical and emotional violence, Christian nationalism, miseducation, emotional health, sports, and more, which produce not only shared vulnerabilities but also tensions among Black folks. To her sons and to all Black men, Lomax insists that Black feminism, which emphasizes mutuality, protection, ethical autonomy, and healing, is vital to forging a safer future for individual and collective survival.
