Please do not give these young men books to read.

The only thing that you can do is parade a multitude of very attractive dark skinned women through your classroom or in their presence.

If they've never seen or agreed that a dark skinned is beautiful then giving them a reading assignment will not help.

Their minds have been molded by larger society and you WILL NOT change their perception in the duration of a school semester.

Especially as they will go out and receive the same reinforcement that they've been getting before.

The only thing that you will be able to do is plant seeds.

You'd need to be able control every bit of their outside input if you wish to change their attitudes.
