Stefan Battle's book explores the profound impact of racial trauma on the everyday lives of five Black men through a combination of autoethnographic narrative and ethnographic performance material. By sharing these personal experiences, stories, and pain, Battle aims to raise awareness about racial trauma and its detrimental effects on the Black community. The book is organized as a performative account of a one-day workshop that Battle could teach to college students or other adults. It includes individual activities such as an interview with a White woman about her relationship to race and racism, a staged reading in which five Black men share their stories, an audience discussion about race and racism, and Battles performative talk, which highlights his desire for people of all races to self-reflect and engage in meaningful conversations about race and racism.
Through his powerful storytelling, Battle reveals that each Black man's unique story holds significance and that understanding the hidden contexts that shape their responses to racism can lead to new insights and healing. He delves into issues such as Black men's mental health and the broader societal systemic racism in the United States that perpetuates tension and harm to the racial victimization of Black men. This book is suitable for students and scholars interested in qualitative research, autoethnography, social sciences, communication studies, education, social work, and Africana or Black studies. It also appeals to anyone who seeks to better understand and engage with the Black male experience in the United States.
