D. L. Hughley Discusses His Latest Book, "How Not to Get Shot"

In America, a black man is three times more likely to be killed in encounters with police than a white guy. This isn’t a new phenomenon. White people have been giving “advice” to black folks for as long as anyone can remember, telling them how to pick cotton, where to sit on a bus, what neighborhood to live in, when they can vote, and how to wear our pants. Despite centuries of whites’ advice, it seems black people still aren’t listening, and the results are tragic. Now, at last, activist, comedian, and New York Times bestselling author D. L. Hughley offers "How Not to Get Shot," an illustrated how-to guide for black people, full of insight from white people, translated by one of the funniest black dudes on the planet. In these pages readers learn how to act, dress, speak, walk and drive in the safest manner possible. Readers will also finally understand the white mind. It is a book that can save lives. Or at least laugh through the pain.
