Shahrazad Ali (born April 27, 1954, in Atlanta, Georgia, US), raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, is an author of several books, including a paperback called The Blackman's Guide to Understanding the Blackwoman.^[1][2][3] The book was controversial^[4][5] bringing 'forth community forums, pickets and heated arguments among blacks in many parts' of the US^[1] when it was published in 1989.

Book reviews[edit]

Stories about the book appeared in the Los Angeles Times, New York Times, Washington Post, Newsday, and Newsweek. Ali appeared on Tony Brown's Journal, the Sally Jessy Raphaël Show, The Phil Donahue Show, and Geraldo TV programs—and was parodied on In Living Color.^[6] The book reportedly brought black bookstores new business,^[4] while other black bookstores banned it.^[1] It also provoked a book of essays (called Confusion by Any Other Name) that explored the negative impact of The Blackman's Guide.^[6]

A sample passage of her book, amongst others quoted in the media, describes African American women referred to as the 'Blackwoman', using the parlance of the Nation of Islam stating:

Although not lazy by nature, she has become loose and careless about herself and about her man and family. Her brain is smaller than the Blackman's, so while she is acclaimed for her high scholastic achievement, her thought processes do not compare to the conscious Blackman's.Her unbridled tongue is the main reason she cannot get along with the Blackman...if she ignores the authority and superiority of the Blackman, there is a penalty. When she crosses this line and becomes viciously insulting it is time for the Blackman to soundly slap her in the mouth.^[1][6]

Ali stated, 'I wrote the book because black women in America have been protected and insulated against certain kinds of criticism and examination.'^[5] Critics complained that book offered no factual data to substantiate her views or information about how she came to her conclusions and was essentially as a vanity-press product that would have been ignored by black people and others had it not been for the media attention its novelty and outrageousness created.^[1][6]Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw has argued that Ali's views mirror a claim made by several commentators and public figures that many social problems in African-American communities are caused by 'the breakdown of patriarchal family values', including William Raspberry, George Will, Daniel Patrick Moynihan in his report The Negro Family and Bill Moyers.^[7]
