Violence against black men in America is increasing, in their own neighborhoods and at the hands of law enforcement. The injuries and fatalities have become so common that many are have become desensitized to the continuous news and images of brutality. The proof lies in the reaction on news outlets and social media. Many expect nothing to be done, because so often nothing is done. Thus, the Loving Black Men project. The authors who contributed to this literary project wanted to do more than just share their opinions on social media. And so, they have come together to illustrate with words the value of human life, especially that of males of color whose existence has been increasingly devalued, resulting in needless violence. With their narratives, these authors have declared war against the ignorance that breeds intolerance, fear, and racism. This is their weapon to counteract the hate mongers, the dividers posing as news broadcasters, and those who use divisiveness for political gain. Though these authors have declared war, the Loving Black Men anthology isn't about hate. It's a project about love.
