Dear Friends,
 Season’s greetings and happy holidays! As the year comes to an end, the word is getting out about Black Faces in White Places: 10 Game-Changing Strategies to Achieve Success and Find Greatness. Thus far the feedback and reviews have been outstanding! However, over the course of my recent book signings and appearances, one thing has stood out: the noticeable number of people who read the title and misunderstand the book’s content. To dispel a few myths, and in the festive spirit of the holidays, I’ve made a list – a POP Quiz – and I’ve checked it twice. I want to find out who is naughty or nice!
POP Quiz for Black Faces in White Places
1. What is this book?
- A self-help book?
- A business book?
- A book about society and race?
- A social commentary on surviving any industry?
- All of the above
2. Who is the audience for this book?
- People of color?
- People of all races, backgrounds and ethnicities?
- People working in institutional environments?
- Students, entrepreneurs, parents?
- All of the above
After reviewing the answers to the POP Quiz below, please consider making Black Faces in White Places a last-minute gift for the holidays. Order here before it’s too late and stay tuned for the official launch of the book’s national tour, campaign, and website (RedefineTheGame.com) in 2011. In the meantime, please accept my best wishes to you and your loved ones for a safe and prosperous holiday season and New Year!
Peace and blessings,
Randal
