Eternal Black Eye
is a bold, unfiltered dissection of the impact & injury that the global majority of the African diaspora, i.e. Black folk, has sustained from colonialism. As a Black social scientist and sociologist, Toshua Cornwell-Clark unpacks the deep wounds left behind from institutional & systemic racism, social stratification, colorism and internalized racism. Toshua pulls no punches as she introduces the reader to the sociological framework that she created and termed "The Colonial Costume". Be prepared to experience a range of emotions, as she unshrouds the insidious ways that Eurocentric standards have become the measuring stick of success, beauty and self-worth. Eternal Black Eye is a testament to the resilience of the Black collective and challenges the reader to unlearn the maladaptive behaviors. It is a battle cry for those who are ready to dismantle the colonial lies, break the mental chains and build a future where Black liberation is non-negotiable. This is more than history, as our history is no longer a mystery! This is a call to revolution... and the revolution starts with your mind!
