Yesterday, on Twitter, Dr. Michael Eric Dyson’s name  became a trending topic soon after he made some controversial statements about President Barack Obama while appearing on MSNBC on the heels of Senator Harry Reid’s apologizing for mentioning President Obama’s “Negro dialect.” Dr. Dyson said that Obama runs from race issues” like a Black man runs from the cops.” Wow.  This, of course, got the party started, with many on the micro-blogging site chastising Dyson for attempting to call the President out. And with his track record for exploiting Black public figures and culture for his own gain, with books about Tupac, Black women and Bill Cosby as proof, we got to wondering what his next book would be. Thus, the trending topic #michaelericdysonbooktitles was born. I contributed, and below are my top ten suggested titles.
