Relationships ain?t easy for anyone but in the Black community they are often challenged by racism, sexism and financial pressures. Those themes are examined in a new book ?Where Did Our Love Go?: Love and Relationships in the African-American Community.??The book is a collection of essays that cover being single, married and divorced from a wide variety of male and female writers of varying ages, education, socioeconomic backgrounds and experiences. Editor Gil Robertson IV, a veteran journalist who is also the editor of ?Not in My Family: AIDS in the African-American Community and ?Family Affair: What It Means to Be an African-American Today? says he hopes the book will inspire constructive dialogue about Black love and relationships.
