Marianne Ruuth's Greatest Work of All Time! Five Stars!, April 3, 2010
This review is from: Skin Deep: Real People Surviving & Succeeding Half-Black Half-White in America (Mass Market Paperback)
From rebel fighter to covert operations and clandestine missions specialist, Robert Lee Taylor, one of America's foremost Black Conservative Republicans, who is also a prominent Northern Virginia technologist and entrepreneur, appears in the book "Skin Deep" by Marianne Ruuth. Technically, Robert Lee Taylor's chapter in the book is the first chapter in the overall and larger story of AONN. In some respects, Taylor's experiences are similar to the experiences of Malcolm X's experiences during Malcolm X's young adolescent street life and subsequent state of incarceration. Though in some ways parallel, Robert Lee Taylor, on the other hand, eventually went to work for the U.S. government after having been set up by rogue elements within a corrupt police force on the West Coast. Skin Deep: Real People Surviving & Succeeding Half-black Half-white in America (official and complete title) is a modern-day classic and quintessential example of both the age-old fight between good and evil as well as truth being stranger than fiction. This legendary true story is fast becoming a retro favorite among many different classes and segments of society throughout not just North America, but also overseas, given the book's increasingly famous cast and related shifts in the international political landscape. The book is also increasingly being used by colleges, universities and libraries around the globe in which to teach Modern African American History. Ultimately, this may turn out to have been the late Marianne Ruuth's greatest work of all time.
