The Beauty of Black Sexuality

About Me


CLICK HERE TO LISTEN

In Loving Color is the groundbreaking new book that looks at Black sexuality from an entirely different perspective. In Loving Color is a book like none other. It is sure to offend some and be the ultimate destination of erotic expression for others. Be cautioned that within the pages of this book, stereotypes will be dismantled, taboos will be shattered, and boundaries will be pushed. This book is not for the average purveyor of porn or erotica. Nor is this book for those that want a quick thrill. Each story is an entity in and of itself; weaving a tapestry of sensual exploration, eroticism and climax around a mélange of words and photographs that create breathtaking imagery. In Loving Color adds dimension and complexity to the experience of Black sexuality. For all too long Black sexuality has been defined by extremes. We have been defined as hypersexual, untamed savages that are ruled by our lust and far too many of us have embraced that caricature without a healthier alterative. Others of us have had to compensate and adopt a role of sexual conservatism to conform to a standard that tells us that the only sex that isn’t dirty . . . is boring. Somewhere between freak and frigid lies AfroerotiK sexuality.
AfroerotiK sexuality is open and honest communication between partners, it’s giving selfless and hedonistic pleasure without a scorecard or reciprocity expected. It is the exploration of fantasies in a way that supports the needs of both parties involved not based on shame or judgment but on respect and growth as a couple. It expands the parameters of what’s “forbidden” and it reigns in the runaway notion that sex without connection and intimacy is just another outlet of pleasure with no repercussions and consequences.
Section one of the book is entitled Ebony Passions and explores loving, erotic relationships with a diverse collection of Black couples. Don’t be fooled, variety is the spice of life and each story will leave you desperate for more. There’s something for everyone in this section and the lessons learned will heat up any relationship or provide incentive to create a unique bond with someone. Section two is dedicated to those expressions of sexuality that society tells us are strictly forbidden. There is no hint or suggestion that one should engage in any activity that makes them feel uncomfortable, or that every expression of sexuality is appropriate for everyone. These chapters serve to provide a space for those that live alternative lifestyles to feel validation and arousal rather than condemnation and ridicule. They serve as a collective of stories that put very human faces on an often marginalized and demonized portion of the population so that the things we all share in common are highlighted rather than perceived differences.
The final section explores one of the most coveted forms of expression yet the least publicly discussed: interracial sexuality. Gone are the days when interracial relations are to be considered forbidden or taboo just because of different skin colors. Racism, curiosity, and tolerance are huge parts of any mixed partnership and those issues are addressed amidst these erotic stories of love and lust. Perhaps the most striking aspect of In Loving Color is the photography. There’s a lot more to this book as you will soon see. Whatever your desire, whatever your fascination, you’re sure to find something in this book that will arouse your passions and stir your emotions. Enjoy your journey of sensual delights and create your own unique erotic experiences that are live and In Loving Color.

Advance Praise for In Loving Color
IN LOVING COLOR is a stellar collection of erotic stories. WARNING: there is a story for everyone no matter what your sexual preference or style. However, the scenes are tastefully written that will have you living through the characters. As you finish each story it will have you begging for more. Lowe has clearly set herself apart from those writing about sexual acts to a literary genius using passion and love to string words together in the primer collection of afroerotikism. Lowe has set the new standard for erotic literature – yes, I said it. This isn’t just sex on paper it is a new genre – erotic literature with substance called AfroerotiK .

My Interests

Black love, marriage, and healthy, committed relationships, Bondage and Discipline, dismantling sexist and oppressive stereotypes, healthy expression of homosexual, bisexual, transgendered, queer, and pansexual people of African descent, and eradicating the racist and dysfucntional mindsets tht form many interracial relationships.

I'd like to meet:

People, very much like the fictional characters in the book, who are filing their lives with joy and pleasure and reaching beyond the narrow limitations with which society has shackled us.

Music:

Nothing on commercial radio, that's for sure. Rare grooves, Neo Soul, music made on real instruments, jazz, acid jazz, complex harmonies and melodies.

Movies:

Nothing with violence. It's destructive and damaging to be entertained by people being murdered, slashed, raped, mangled and dismembered.

Television:

If there was ONE show on Television, one show, that showed Black people in a well rounded, healthy light, I'd be happy to list it here. Sadly, no such show exists. Everything on TV shows us as clowns, baffoons, hypersexualized, materialistic, and as niggers. There are individual Black characters on TV who are well rounded but there are no Black shows that are.

Books:

In Loving Color, Erotique Noir, Dark Eros, Body and Soul.

Heroes:

All the brave individuals who took a stand for what was right and spoke out amidst detractors and those who looked to silence them.
