Read it Today!,
By Les (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Black Miami in the Twentieth Century (Florida History and Culture) (Hardcover)
Dunn's book is a MUST READ for anyone who "truly" desires to learn the history of Miami. Black Miami is fantastically written and maintains the utmost quality and clarity. His work is short and snappy, based on fact and quickly gets to the point. It covers specifically the history of Miami, utilizing the Black perspective. Dunn intelligently separate his work into four sections. Beginning with the first Blacks in South Florida, ending with modern times. Dunn stresses various social, political and economic challenges that persons of African descent residing in Florida faced. He goes into extensive details with the 1980 riot, mentioning its origins and elaborating on what exactly took place. In all, Dunn does an excellent job aiding readers to better understand the complicated inner politics of 20th century Miami. Black Miami in the Twentieth Century is certain edify one as to why Miami is in the position it is today. |
