The Global Black Man

By Alexis Neal

The Global Black Man: Getting Out of the Hood and Good in the World by Alexis Neal is a deeply personal and powerfully reflective narrative chronicling the life journey of a Black man from the South Side of Chicago to become a global citizenship of the world. With raw honesty and hard-earned wisdom, Lex weaves together experiences as a disadvantaged youth, decorated U.S. Army colonel, high school teacher, and successful businessman. This compelling memoir serves not only as a testimony of resilience and transformation but also as a guiding blueprint for young Black men striving to rise above generational trauma, systemic barriers, and self-doubt. Anchored by 44 rules to live by and framed through poignant storytelling, the book challenges readers to think globally, act locally, and lead with purpose. It is a call to empowerment, identity, and healing through self-awareness, mentorship, and community.
