This is a review of the book and film, Waiting To Exhale, its success over the years, and the criticism it endured from its own community. I mention some of the men of the film, Wesley Snipes and Daniel Haysbert. I also talk about the essay, Mock Feminism from her essay collection, Reel To Real: Race, Class, and Sex At The Movies. 

Here is the link for further details on the books I mentioned:
