Why Black Men Nod at Each Other Book Cover

New Release from
Raynor Books!

Bill Raynor’s memoir- Why Black Men Nod At Each Other- explores the themes of education, athletics, coming of age and culture. Raynor takes the reader on an honest and passionate journey that navigates the road from Boston’s Mission Hill and Whittier Street housing projects to the halls of Dartmouth College, to  his international travels around the globe. Bill highlights the insidious nature of racism, the importance of purpose, the power of athletic competition and the brotherhood of men of color. Raynor’s  experiences as a student, athlete, coach, educator, artist, and higher education  administrator detail how each of those roles shaped his personal philosophy. Raynor’s  insights into the shared experiences of men of color are encouragement for all to continue to do the uncomfortable work of removing walls that separate and assist in building bridges to common humanity.
