Think and Grow Rich: A Black Choice: A Guide to Success for Black Americans
by Dennis Kimbro, Napoleon Hill
About This Book
Dennis Kimbro takes Napoleon Hill's foundational success philosophy and reframes it entirely for Black Americans — not as a cosmetic update, but as a genuine reckoning with the specific barriers, cultural strengths, and historical context that shape the Black experience in America. Drawing on interviews with dozens of successful Black leaders, entrepreneurs, and artists, Kimbro builds a case that the principles of wealth and achievement are universal, but the path to them is not. The result is a book that feels both urgent and empowering, refusing to pretend that systemic obstacles don't exist while insisting they aren't the final word.
What distinguishes this book is Kimbro's voice — warm, direct, and deeply researched without ever turning clinical. He structures each chapter around a core principle, then grounds it in real stories from real people whose names and struggles will resonate. The writing moves with purpose, and the blend of Hill's timeless framework with Kimbro's cultural specificity creates something neither author could have produced alone. Readers looking for actionable guidance anchored in genuine community will find the pages feel less like self-help boilerplate and more like hard-won counsel passed down from someone who has done the work.
