Description: "What do you when your vision of the world and yourself is shaken to the core? When two Black Montreal artists create a show from images of pimps, thugs and dancehall queens, community leader Frank Simmons is outraged and tries to censor the demeaning images. What else is a man who is highly opinionated - especially about being Black and the Black experience - to do? What Frank does not count on is art's ability to transform as he is forced to confront himself in a way that is both disturbing and revealing. Little will be the same afterwards for Frank, the artists, and perhaps Black people everywhere."--BOOK JACKET.
