This review is from: Blue-Chip Black: Race, Class, and Status in the New Black Middle Class (George Gund Foundation Imprint in African American Studies) (Paperback)
I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend it for a view of African-Americans who have been able to take advantage of education and earnings to buy homes in good neighborhoods. It covers many aspects of the experience, from home-hunting and being steered away from mainly white neighborhoods (by both black and white realtors), to raising and educating children, to negotiating shopping. Another great book to read is Black Picket Fences.
4.0 out of 5 stars

If you're taking a sociology class or are just sociologically inclined this is a great choice. I bought it for my sociology class and even though I hated my professor, Blue Chip Black is a good read and an interesting piece to think on.
