According to Nelson, "sex is absolutely political," and "what a black woman really needs is a brothel." New economic stimulus plan? Maybe not.Following her bestselling novel, Sexual Healing: A Novel, Nelson discusses her new book, Let's Get It On: A Novel and how she believes that "women are getting screwed one way or another, so let's enjoy it!"
