Review

"The King Inside lays the groundwork for our young African-American males as they navigate their way through life and the societies they inhabit. Dr. Rouse demonstrates that with hard work and a strong support system, our young black men can become successful regardless of their race, class, and social circumstances. The King Inside is must read and a wonderful guide for people of all ages!" Evan Burnett Rochester City School District "The brilliant new book entitled The King Inside by Dr. Angelise M. Rouse is an indispensable guide for young African-American males to reach their highest potential in all important facets of life. It is imperative that young African-American males properly equip themselves with a full armor to be successful in mainstream society and not live beneath their natural and spiritual privilege."  Dr. Frederick R. Lester Men's Empowerment Network "There are truths in this country that must be acknowledged if we are ever going to make progress, so whether we like it or not, we must understand that the United States was built on a foundation of racial inequality, so it is important that we are constantly providing tools to our young men so that they can successfully navigate the world we live in, so that we can try and bring this inequality into balance. "The King Inside" provides practical, clear, concise, and most importantly uplifting information for young African-American males." Dr. Flavius A B Akerele III Coleman University, CA
