Fine unread condition red boards/red cloth spine/black spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Acknowledgments; Author's Note; Introduction by Michael Wilbon and Afterword. "Who's afraid to t…alk on the record about the way things really are in this country where race is concerned? Not Charles Barkley, and now, thanks to him, and a host of other important people who carry a wealth of wisdom with them, from Bill Clinton and Barack Obama to Samuel L. Jackson, Tiger Woods, and Ice Cube. This 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 who 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? Who but Charles Barkley can put us into the passenger seat next to him for one of the most fantastic American road trips in recent memory? Who's Afraid of a Large Black Man? is so surprising, challenging, and entertaining, so compelling to read, that its importance sneaks up on you and knocks you clean into another state of mind. Bold, honest, funny, moving, occasionally shocking -- everything we feel we can't say but it really is time we did. Only Charles Barkley could make this conversation happen, and for that alone he is a national treasure." - from the inner front jacket flap.

Charles Wade Barkley (born February 20, 1963) is an American former professional basketball player who is a television analyst on TNT and CBS Sports. Nicknamed "Sir Charles", "Chuck", and "the Round Mound of Rebound", Barkley played 16 seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA) for three teams. Though shorter than the typical power forward, he used his strength and aggressiveness to become one of the NBA's most dominant rebounders. He was a versatile player who had the ability to score, create plays, and defend. Barkley was an 11-time NBA All-Star, an 11-time member of the All-NBA Team, and the 1993 NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP). Barkley competed in the 1992 and 1996 Olympic Games and won two gold medals as a member of the United States men's basketball team. He was named to the NBA's 50th and 75th anniversary teams. Barkley has written several books and has shown an interest in politics. In 2002, Barkley released the book I May Be Wrong, But I Doubt It, which included editing and commentary by close friend Michael Wilbon. Michael Wilbon (born 1958 or 1959 (age 64-65)) is an American commentator for ESPN and former sportswriter and columnist for The Washington Post. He has co-hosted Pardon the Interruption on ESPN since 2001. I May Be Wrong but I Doubt It is a memoir by former American professional basketball player Charles Barkley. The book became a bestseller in 2002. It reflects Barkley's own personality, experiences, and opinions. It explores a wide range of interests and discusses a variety of controversial topics. Each chapter has its own theme, and ranges from politics to lack of minority control in sports. It also recounts some of Barkley's memorable experiences during his Hall of Fame NBA career, such as his involvement with Michael Jordan as a member of the legendary U.S. Olympic gold medal winning "Dream Team." Derived from a Kirkus review: Positive opinions from former NBA standout Barkley. His reputation for being a rebarbative figure hinges on his urge to address serious issuesâ"the prevalence of racism, the need for education, the emptiness of taking celebrities as role modelsâ"in a forthright fashion. Yet he also appreciates the reality of "star power" and the responsibility it entails: not just to play the best he can for team and fans, but to put big social issues on the table and keep people talking about them. This may mean calling Augusta National on its discriminatory policiesâ"though he is curiously silent on its treatment of women, something that obviously deserves at least a mentionâ"while at the same time noting that "Tiger winning at Augusta allows a whole lot of people an easy way to feel better about . exclusion." Much is made of Barkley's Republicanism, and he does evince a strong fondness for money, but he comes across here as more of a Vermonter: thrifty, plain-speaking, hardworking, with a sense of responsibility and a love of his craft. Is a true baddie really about to say, "There's no way God allowed me to make all this money, meet all the people I've met, and rise to this status just to sit around, count my money, and not to try to help people improve their lives"? Barkley may reject being a role modelâ"that's what family and friends are for, he says. But as someone who demands that kids think and assume responsibility, he's headed in the right direction. Charles Barkley has never been shy about expressing his opinions. Michael Jordan once said that we all want to say the things that Barkley says, but we don't dare. But even die-hard followers of the all-time NBA great, the star of TNT's Inside the NBA and CNN's TalkBack Live, will be astonished by just how candid and provocat.
