BSE In Context—A Tool for Black Sexual Development"Reviews"""What's compelling about Dr. Gilbert's book is that she invites us to think critically about the convergence of sexuality and race and frames the two elusive constructs in a manner that is engaging and insightful. This book is timely given the sensitivity around the necessity of expanding light and discourse about the sexual expression of persons of African descent. Dr. Gilbert paves the way for scholars and practitioners with her work as Black and Sexy will be used in collegiate classrooms and lay communities for years to come. I wholeheartedly endorse this masterpiece and look forward to many conversations with my students. Bravo! - James C. Wadley, Ph.D., CST-S; Editor in Chief of the Journal of Black Sexuality and Relationships, Lincoln University ""Black and Sexy does something other texts do not: It contextualizes race as not simply a social construct, but as a sexual social construct that white supremacy culture uses to pathologize the sexuality of African American and Afro-descended people. After naming the negative, traumatic roots of this framing, Dr. Gilbert brings the reader into a space of reconceptualization and healing, inviting Black individuals and communities to own, embrace and celebrate their sexuality. This should be required reading for all current and future sexologists."" - Elizabeth Schroeder, EdD, MSW; Sexuality Educator and Consultant" What's compelling about Dr. Gilbert's book is that she invites us to think critically about the convergence of sexuality and race and frames the two elusive constructs in a manner that is engaging and insightful.
