I have decided to stop selling this book. I have no real justification for writing this book and it doesn't fit how I really feel about other people. I wrote this book without the consideration for others. For some reason it took this book to get me to open my eyes to see that I judged many by the actions of a few. I apologize to those I have offended and I am disappointed myself as a person. Talking with Howard Stern made me realize how ridiculous my statements in this book really were. Again I apologize for this selfless act.

From the Inside,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: From a White to a Negro in 2010 (Paperback)
Let's be very clear about this. This gentleman is telling black people what white people say about them behind closed doors. You might say it's racist, others might call it informative. Very likely, it's a little of both. He's saying what he's overheard and experienced during his life, and - yes - the generalizations that people invariably make about race etc. The fact is that these negative stereotypes exist. What is the response? Anger, violence and cursing unfortunately will confirm the stereotypes. But the knowledge of these opinions could get people to think twice about their actions. I know many African Americans who have said similar things about their race, and lamented about many of the things he mentions here. Those that buck the stereotypes have a world of opportunity waiting for them. This book could just be that message in a bottle.
5.0 out of 5 stars
The Joke's On You,
This review is from: From a White to a Negro in 2010 (Paperback)
What everyone so far has completely missed is that this is a joke and the joke is on the racist."Chapter 1: I made the front large and the sentences short for those with a short attention span. I figured pictures would be too much of a distraction from the words." This book is showing up the racist as stupid and neanderthal in his thinking. Chris John Yingling is making some pretty astute money from the dumbest on the planet and at just under $1000 a copy he deserves the 5 stars for sheer comedy and con. Who knew the racist was so easily duped and so incredibly stupid??? Yingling knows it, I know it... what about you?

Simple but honest,
By
This review is from: From a White to a Negro in 2010 (Paperback)
I'm sure it won't break any records,and I doubt the stats presented have many figures to back them up, but it does inspire thought. This book is a compilation of observations that begs to be answered intelligently, though I doubt it ever will be. It might be a little crude and rough around the edges, but it is honest, and worth a read.
