Are You A N____r or a Doctor": A Memoir 2023
"A Page-Turner" -
Otto E. Stallworth Jr. M.D. M.B.A. shares untold tales from his rich, distinctive, and varied life experiences, starting in Birmingham, Alabama, in the 1940s.
His childhood years with friends and neighbors were filled with dangerous adventures and narrow escapes.
During this time, he became aware of several quirks and societal limits relating to race, like when he discovered a White-only water fountain and wanted to compare its flavor to Colored water.
Other major topics in the story include falling in love, losing loved ones, and working as a doctor.
Even discovered an R&B group at a wedding and became their manager (with a partner), which resulted in winning a Grammy for Best New Artist a short time later.
Precise and vivid words are used to portray his reactions, feelings, and observations. You feel as if you are sharing his experiences rather than simply reading about them. You can sense his exhilaration when he talked about being entranced by a woman's smile and his worry when making a crucial decision while impaired.
Dr. Stallworth is a fantastic storyteller and provides insightful observations on historical and racial issues, such as the decades-long exploitation of black males with syphilis - the Tuskegee Syphilis Study.
You will enjoy and learn a lot from this "page-turner."
