Smith (Director of Multicultural Affairs and International Student Services at Millikin University in Decatur, Illinois) based on his personal experiences. He combines those experiences with some very clever social commentary. His book, Black Not Blind is a sure fire collection of personal essays on race and reality in America that is bound to maintain the interest of its readers. Bryant shares his soul and the truth about life and being Black in America today. Born on the Southside of Chicago, Bryant did not understand the complexities of racism until he left the safety of his urban paradise and headed south for college. Though hidden within the safety of his home life, Bryant found that prejudice began during his childhood. Bryant's continuing saga of race prejudice did not allow him to escape, even in adulthood. In an attempt to understand and help others deal with racism and prejudice in America, Bryant revisits some of the most painful but educational moments in his life and shares them with his readers. This book is bound to become one of the most treasured books of its time. It is a peep into the life of Bryant and the seemingly unbreakable bond of racism at its worst. Draw closer into the mind of Bryant K. Smith as he unapologetically talks about what so many of us have silently faced and/or witnesses. The only difference is that Bryant dared to write his observations in a continuous attempt to help him and others heal and live together.Bryant K. Smith is the author of 'Black Not Blind', published 2002 under ISBN 9780966677768 and ISBN 0966677765.
