This book is in no way objective and academic. It presumes that only non-Jewish white people of Northern European descent are the only people in the world guilty of prejudice and racism. If anything it furthers an "us" and "them" mentality rather than promoting cultural understanding. If it weren't required for my class, I would not be reading it.
By Marian L. Ward
I read this book cover to cover for my cultural diversity class. The only reason it's getting two stars is because the interviews towards the end of the book were pretty interesting.
This book points to Whites as the only people who are racist. The world struggles because White people reside in it, and that mentality was displayed through the whole book. I am not a racist and don't appreciate being forced into thinking I am one because I'm White.
African Americans have EVERY reason not to trust Whites according to this book. That's one thing that stuck with me and probably will forever.
