Chocolate Covered Ants at THEARC

Dr. Adrienne Taylor is a professor of mental health at the fictitious Farrington Women's College. She's spent three years researching the plight of the African American woman, a journey that has brought her in direct contact with women from all over the United States. These women come from various social and economic statuses and range from the self made millionaires to those whose survival depends on government welfare. Chocolate Covered Ants chronicles the final leg of her research- and examination of the African American male to determine what effects if any they played on the mental, social and physical survival of the African American female. After an intense search, Dr. Taylor has invited a select group of men from around the country to take part in this research. They are her subjects, her Chocolate Covered Ants. Some have come of their own accord; others by legal obligations, and a few by promises of compensation.
