UNFORGETTABLE BASKETBALL LEGENDS: CHARLES BARKLEY

Who's Afraid of a Large Black Man?
Who's Afraid of a Large Black Man?
is the most personal and important book Charles Barkley has written.

He lays himself open here, and because he does, he brings the same straight talk out of everyone with whom he engages in his journey around America to talk about the things that matter most and are the hardest to say - things having to do with race, and money, and identity.

Why is it that we can talk about all sorts of big issues, but when the subject of race is raised, we all freeze up ?
