This review is from: Getting Beyond Race: The Changing American Culture (Hardcover)
This book proved a very positive view of how race relations can be improved in this country. He doesn't whitewash the problems, but examines many of our silly assumptions about race (for example, most Americans believe a white woman can give birth to a black child, but never the other way around) and puts them in context, arguing that our attitudes are changing and that there is hope for the future. I use this book as supplemental reading for a course on racism.

This review is from: Getting Beyond Race: The Changing American Culture (Hardcover)
This book is positive and different in terms of race in America. The chapter on the Social Construction of Race is especially enlightening. The chapter on the Military is a good "how-to" piece.
