An Intimate Perspective,
By GA-boy (Atlanta, Ga) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Living through the Hoop: High School Basketball, Race, and the American Dream (Hardcover)
May has an uncanny ability to immerse the reader in his intimate dealings with the subsets of society he studies. As a participant/observer in this high school basketball community, May is able to both pose and answer questions that the casual reader would never be privileged to embark upon alone. The end result of this work is to share a rare perspective of the struggles faced by the specific black youth of "Northeast" high school, and of the impact of social elements in the creation and attainment of life goals by youth in general. Great book.
