Don'T Call Me Black, Call Me American Paperback – May 2, 2008

5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars 1 rating

It is time to have a real conversation about race relations in the United States of America. It is time to take the elephant off of the table, and sit it in the center of the room as we all sit around it and address the problems that it presents. We have avoided and tip toed around this subject for long enough and we can't afford to continue to do so if we expect to see any real progress.Over the last 44 years since the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., we have been labeled as Negros, Colored, Black, and "African Americans" but never just as Americans.This book is not about blacks against whites, its about the rights and wrongs of society, the history of oppression this nation is responsible for condoning, the social tolerance to deny other human beings the right to equality, and the brave men and women who had the courage to step forward, and demand that minorities be given the same chance at the pursuit of happiness that every man has the birth right to enjoy.
