Synopsis
Bill Cosby and Alvin F. Poussaint have a powerful message for families and communities as they lay out their visions for strengthening America, or for that matter the world. They address the crises of people who are stuck because of feelings of low self-esteem, abandonment, anger, fearfulness, sadness, and feelings of being used, undefended and unprotected. These feelings often impede their ability to move forward. The authors aim to help empower people make the daunting transition from victims to victors. Come On, People! is always engaging, and loaded with heart-piercing stories of the problems facing many communities.
- Illuminating and captivating stories
- Combines powerful message of personal responsibility with practical solutions
- Rides on the media coverage of Cosby's public statements and city-by-city callouts

August 15, 2009: Bill Cosby has written a book that will enlighted anyone that reads it. It also opens up ideas and thoughts that need to be addressed today, especially among the afro american people. I think young people need to grab a hold of this book and read it cover to cover. You can tell that there has been much research before the book was written. Not every day you can read a book that tells you factual information about your race. It also has momemts that will lift your spirits and make you feel there is hope for the future.
Another Must Have!!!by Yola

This book will open up your eyes and what you thought was impossible for you to do, will be possible, after reading this book. It will show you how to overcome from being a victim to a victor! "WE are a resilient people"... Come on, people!
