Ira Katznelson was an excellent author for When Affirmative Action Was White. This untold history of racial inequality is an eye opener and page turner. It's a very informative and fact check book. The history is strong and sometimes sad look at the government system. I enjoy the read, it's knowledge and facts are incredible because sometimes things still haven't changed. A good read.

Good Book!! So Good I Cited it in My Book!!
When Affirmative Action was White explains the ways in which black people have been excluded from society. It was so good that I had to reference it in my book: The Real Wakandas of Africa: Dr. John Henrik Clarke vs. Herman Cain. When Affirmative Action Was White discusses a number of small and large ways that Black people have been kept from American wealth and resources. Ultimately, this has led to the black community becoming impoverished within the framework of a very wealthy American nation. This book details the history of welfare laws that were skewed toward white people in America, and were designed to exclude black people. In addition, it points out that homeownership was often denied to African-Americans. You will be left shocked by these policies that existed. In all, this book provides a phenomenal discussion about the ways in which African-Americans were excluded and are still kept from the benefits of American society. It is a worthy read.
