The Denzel Principle: Why Black Women Can't Find Good Black Men
Jimi Izrael
Blackstone Audiobooks
2010
cd
Funny, in your face, and irreverent, The Denzel Principle is guaranteed to strike a chord--and most likely a nerve--with black women everywhere.The Denzel Principle is the belief that the perfect man--the epitome of all the things women think Denzel Washington represents--exists off screen, and you get one for your very own without settling for less: the regular good man need not apply. "The Dizzle", aka Mr. Perfect, is tough but vulnerable, accessible but not transparent, political but not radical, mannish but not macho, sexy but not solicitous, passionate but not hysterical, doting but not docile--and all these things on cue and in proper measure.The Denzel Principle gives up-front advice to women on how to break this cycle, including "Ways to Attract Mr. Right" and "Ten Reasons to Love Ordinary Black Men."

"H.I.M." is an historic contemporary radio memoir of my career as an on-air personality ("Disc Jockey" or "DJ") with stories of the mentors I was blessed with and some of the fun and not-so-fun adventures I experienced. Additionally, I share short stories and lessons learned in and outside of broadcasting, inspired by my journey through life to that point, and some of the other people I met along the way in-pursuit of growth and recognition on and off of the airwaves. I chronicle some of the games that people in power play, to make success difficult for some talents in this part of show business, as well as how I tried to overcome obstacles thrown in my path.

An incisive, intimate and profound work.- Candice Carty-Williams, author of Queenie and People PersonAs thrilling as it is touching and revealing - this book is an indispensable map to London today.- Ben Judah, Journalist and author of This is London: Life and Death in the World CityJimi brings modern black London alive like no other author. This feels like an important book that is also a total pleasure to read. - Sathnam Sanghera, author of Empireland: How Modern Britain is Shaped by its Imperial PastThe past, present and future of being Black, African and British in the capital.This is a story that begins with post-1960s arrivals from Nigeria, Ghana, Zimbabwe and Somalia. Today their descendants have unleashed a tidal wave of British creativity from Lambeth to Lagos, Islington to the Ivory Coast. Jimi Famurewa writes with humour, style and sensitivity about the extraordinary world of Black African London. He also uncovers a history of racial discrimination, examines the legacy of transracial private fostering, and reveals the friction between family customs and the stresses of modern life. Part memoir, part history, part journalism, this is an essential, hopeful, vivid portrait of modern Britain.---What makes a Londoner? What is it to be Black, African and British? And how can we understand the many tangled roots of our modern nation without knowing the story of how it came to be?Daniel Kaluuya and Skepta; John Boyega and Little Simz; Edward Enninful and Bukayo Saka – everywhere you look, across the fields of sport, business, fashion, the arts and beyond, there are the descendants of Black African families that were governed by many of the same immutable, shared traditions.In this book Jimi Famurewa, a British-Nigerian journalist, journeys into the hidden yet vibrant world of African London. Seeking to understand the ties that bind Black African Londoners together and link them with their home countries, he visits their places of worship, roams around markets and restaurants, attends a traditional Nigerian engagement ceremony, shadows them on their morning journeys to far-flung grammar schools and listens to stories from shopkeepers and activists, artists and politicians.But this isn’t just the story of energetic, ambitious Londoners. Jimi also uncovers a darker side, of racial discrimination between White and Black communities and, between Black Africans and Afro-Caribbeans. He investigates the troublesome practice of ‘farming’ in which young Black Nigerians were sent to live with White British foster parents, examines historic interaction with the police, and reveals the friction between traditional Black African customs and the stresses of modern life in diaspora. This is a vivid new portrait of London, and of modern Britain.
