Must read at this time
Excellent reading. Just finished my second reading. Unfortunately we are dealing with same issues today. White people (and I am one) need to stop being in denial. Standing back and watching what has happened to African Americans in this country for 400 years and still continues, is like the Germans claiming they didn't know what was happening to the jews. Germany came out of denial and faced their collusion, it's time this country did the same.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
