I take my coffee black : reflections on Tupac, musical theater, faith, and being Black in America / by Merritt, Tyler,author.; Kimmel, Jimmy,1967-writer of foreword.; Tieche, David,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."As a 6'2" dreadlocked black man, Tyler Merritt knows that getting too close to the wrong person can get him killed. But he also believes that proximity can be a cure for racism. Tyler Merritt's video "Before You Call the Cops" has been viewed more than 59 million times. He's appeared on Jimmy Kimmel and Sports Illustrated and has been profiled in the New York Times. The viral video's main point--that the more you know someone, the more empathy, understanding, and compassion you have for that person--is the springboard for this book, which lets us deeply into Tyler's life and his world to help bridge the divides that seem to grow wider every day. In I Take My Coffee Black, Tyler tells hilarious stories from his own life as a black man in America. He talks about growing up in a multi-cultural community and realizing that he wasn't always welcome. He shares how he quit sports for musical theater (that's where the girls were), to how Jesus barged in uninvited and changed his life forever (it all revolved around a Triple Fat Goose jacket), to how he ended up at a small Bible college in Santa Cruz because he thought they had a great theater program (they didn't). Throughout his stories, he also seamlessly weaves in lessons about privilege and the legacy of lynching and sharecropping and why you don't cross black mamas, teaching readers about the history of encoded racism that still undergirds our society today. By turns witty, insightful, and laugh-out-loud funny, I Take My Coffee Black paints a portrait of black manhood in America and enlightens, illuminates, and entertains--and, ultimately, builds the kind of empathy that might just be the antidote against the racial injustice in our society. With a foreword from Jimmy Kimmel"--

David Bowie. [videorecording] : from Konrad to Starman 1962-1972 / by Bowie, David.; Smokin',publisher.;
David Bowie.Best known of course for his startling imagery and multiple characters, David Bowie had, for the best part of a decade prior to getting his first big break, been sitting on the margins of the music industry trying everything he could come up with in an attempt to get noticed. This film investigates what happened between the birth of one David Jones in Brixton, London in 1947 and the dawn of his career in music - which began when, at the age of 16, he formed local group The Konrads as saxophonist - and the day when the same young man, by now re-christened David Bowie, first came to the attention of the world at large under his alter-ego Ziggy Stardust in 1972. Featuring rare and exclusive interviews, contributions from those who worked with David during this time, rare film footage, archive material plus news reports, location shoots, rare photographs and much more besides, this intriguing documentary is the finest film yet to emerge on this often forgotten period of Bowie's incredible career.E.DVD ; full screen presentation.
