This song is sung by Fetty Wap. He tried to love guns for her sake and his. He fell in love with a white girl, and to bond with her father, became a gun owner, with all the reservations a young black man would have as a gun owner. He earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Tulsa and a master's degree in professional writing from the University of Oklahoma. This book took me by surprise. He'd always avoided anything to do with guns until he needed a way to connect with his gun-loving white father-in-law. triggerOnFocusSongPlay.push("commonfunc.setLyricsHeight(); utility.playSongFromServer({ids:17405941,play_song:0,action:'tracklist',source:1,source_id:1,objtype:1,premium_content:0});");setTimeout(function(){insertRelatedData('relatedSongDetail', '17405941', '0', 'English');},6000);triggerOnFocusSongPlay=[];commonfunc.setLyricsHeight(); utility.playSongFromServer({ids:17405941,play_song:0,action:'tracklist',source:1,source_id:1,objtype:1,premium_content:0}); Gaana is the one-stop solution for all your music needs.

My favorite parts of the book were in the complexities of the intersection between politics and the people he knows -- his Trump-supporting, truck driving, concealed-carrying mother, unconcerned that she's unusual for holding those political sentiments while black.

There are several big ….I guess I could call them plot twists, even though this is nonfiction; near the end (related both to the author’s wife and birth family), and I wished there was more time spent on them. Overall good read.A fascinating perspective on guns and race that I haven't seen represented before: I really enjoyed reading the book and appreciated the weaving of his personal history with the history of the NRA and the connections between race, culture, and gun policy.

His story does not surprise--he tells of the racism of gun culture, the challenges of belonging while married to a white woman, how politics can destroy relationships, the pain of being estranged from one's parents. But different strokes for different folks and his personal motivation is valid. (Best believe I will literally devour anything else he puts out! Automatically playing similar songs. Several surprising revelations and encounters there; especially the love and support Charles showed once his tough exterior was cracked. I listened to this on audiobook and it was narrated by the author, R.J., who did a fantastic job. As a black man RJ wanted to stay as far away from guns as possible. )Personal, reflective, and brutally honest. He followed through.

Listen to A$AP Ferg Let It Bang MP3 song. He'd always avoided anything to do with guns until he needed a way to connect with his gun-loving white father-in-law. His journey from being anti-gun to becoming an excellent marksman while struggling with the race implications of being a black man who owns and carries guns is a study of overall race issues in America. Start by marking “Let It Bang: A Young Black Man’s Reluctant Odyssey into Guns” as Want to Read: The author is thoughtful and well-prepared with statistics about violence, who assaults and kills who and when, what the rates of firearm ownership and use are when they are available. RJ brings the history of NRA and his visits to the gun range, interactions with his family through marriage and writes with kindness and understanding. I felt it wasn't really cohesive and it was a little juvenile and flat. He made me feel and think about things that at times made me uncomfortable, but as the author says, “the way forward is for you to feel uncomfortable.” I agree with him when he says we need to confront our racism and acknowledge our privilege and that we need to use that privilege to speak up. He made me feel and think about things that at times made me uncomfortable, but as the author says, “the way forward is for you to feel uncomfortable.” I agree with him when he says we need to confront our racism and acknowledge our privilege and that we need RJ Young’s experience as a black man in this country is one we need to acknowledge and understand.

I hope for corrections in any subsequent editions.RJ Young is a black writer whose work has appeared in Grantland, Racialicious, Reuters, TheOklahoman, This Land Press, Knoxville News Sentinel, TulsaWorld, SB Nation Longform and USA Today, among other publications. It’s a short memoir at around 165 pages with big typeface and lots of space between sentences. All of these sharply painful things, and what I walk away with asking is: Who is the Second AThis is one of those books that handed so much over to me that it's taken quite a number of days for me to get close to writing a review, much less sorting everything out. The book is about Young’s experience exploring gun culture as a black man and primarily set around his hometown Tulsa, Oklahoma.I found “Let It Bang” by RJ Young at the library. Do I want the people I most fear to be the only ones who most conceal and carry in this country? It was at its strongest when RJ related his experiences with his in-laws and his “fish out of water” moments at the gun range/gun show.

There's still so much left to know. This was the book that gives me some perspective into our "surreally gun overwhelmed country".
