I had to read this book for a class (actually, I'm currently reading it for the class) and all I can say is that it is the most prejudicial, hateful and demeaning thing I have ever had to read. All the book does is tout how evil White people are and how badly Blacks and Hispanics are discriminated against. According to the book, only White people discriminate and the Blacks and Hispanics have no control over their lives. Now I am not naive and I do know that there is racism and discrimination in the world, but White people are not the only perpetrators of it as the book seems to insinuate. If you have to read this book for a class, I feel your pain. If you are looking to read something for your own information, then save your money and buy something else. At this point I think a toaster would be a better use of your money than this book.
