  NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 
  ""[A] scorching treatise on toxic masculinity. Joseph’s critiques of “the patriarchy... both overt and ingrained” are razor-sharp, but it’s the clear-eyed reckoning of his own place within it that tethers the soul of his book."" —Publishers Weekly 
  ""Joseph has learned a great deal from bell hooks here, and I think she would be proud because Patriarchy Blues is such a moving, inspiring, rigorous vision for living.” —Robert Jones, Jr., New York Times bestselling author of The Prophets 
  In this personal and poignant collection, the author of the New York Times bestseller The Black Friend examines the culture of masculinity through the lens of a Black man.  
  What does it mean to be a man today? How does the pervasive yet elusive idea of “toxic masculinity” actually reflect men’s experiences—particularly those of color—and how they navigate the world? 
  In this thought-provoking collection of essays, poems, and short reflections, Frederick Joseph contemplates these questions and more as he explores issues of masculinity and patriarchy from both a personal and cultural standpoint. From fatherhood, and “manning up” to abuse and therapy, he fearlessly and thoughtfully tackles the complex realities of men’s lives today and their significance for society, lending his insights as a Black man. 
  Written in Joseph’s unique voice, with an intelligence and raw honesty that demonstrates both his vulnerability and compassion, Patriarchy Blues forces us to consider the joys, pains, and destructive nature of manhood and the stereotypes it engenders.

  Three Wise Monkeys - Through the...

  Volume 2 of Three Wise Monkeys explores Catholic Mozambique's role in the leisure economy of Protestant South Africa, as a place where bachelor miners and Randlords alike could project their fantasies of subtropical exotica, whether in the raucous bars and brothels of the port or in the development of the upmarket Polana Hotel and the vision of segregated 'tourist zones' for race-conscious Rand holidaymakers.
  Mozambique's liminal place in the leisure and entertainment universe was nowhere better represented than in the rise and eventual fall of Lourenço Marques Radio. For decades, LM Radio beamed the hit songs of the day, and a certain vision of post-war modernity, to white South Africans increasingly in thrall to the stifling rule of Calvinist churches, the National Party and the Broederbond-dominated SABC. The eventual triumph of the SABC in muzzling LM Radio was a foretaste of the police state that came to imprison South African minds during the 1960s and 1970s.

  Breaking Your Bubble - Return to...

  REALIGN YOUR LIFESTYLE TO YOUR NATURAL DESIGN 
  Break the fast-expanding bubble created by today’s new culture. Your modern lifestyle, enforced by the toxic cultural bubble, does not match your natural, inherited design and even acts against it. 
  The rapid progress of modern science and technology has provided us with incredible capabilities, yet it has also brought us more ways to harm ourselves. The toxicity of the bubble comes only in part from unnatural, artificial, harmful chemicals in our food and environment. Worse, it encourages us to replace healthy, good habits with new, harmful ones. 
  This mismatch between our lifestyle and our design, which humanity did not see until a few decades ago, is damaging our physical and mental health. It creates weakness and unnecessary suffering. It is the root cause of most chronic diseases today, which are increasing rapidly, even in the young. From the water we drink and the way we eat to how we give birth nowadays, many things have changed for the worse. 
  Aided by technological advances, our culture is resetting the values of previous generations and disconnecting us from who we are, from nature, and from our ancestors' wisdom. This greatly amplifies our self-destructive, natural human inclination to abuse and damage ourselves and others. But it doesn’t need to be this way anymore. 
  I provide step-by-step instructions on how to successfully detox and achieve true, complete health—physical, mental, and spiritual. I explain why so many modern diets work temporarily but fail to succeed long-term and show you how to overcome this issue.  
  Only you can harness your almost unlimited inner resources to steer yourself out of the damaging bubble and onto the road of health and purpose. Are you ready to break your bubble?
