The Black White Divide in America Still: The Inherent Contradiction in Partial Equality

THE BLACK/WHITE DIVIDE IN AMERICA ... STILL is an overview of America's persistent racism as told through the astute observations and experiences of the authors, each raised on different sides of that Divide, one white and one black. It seeks to remind us of the persistence of that Divide in this country, despite the insufficient and brief exceptions to it such as a man who is African American running for president at the head of a major political party. The book intensely examines the structural elements of the societal schisms caused by this Divide and gives specific prescriptions for things that need to be done if the Divide is to be permanently undone. THE BLACK/WHITE DIVIDE IN AMERICA ... STILL is a thoughtful and sobering work that will cause each of us to examine our individual and collective complacency in allowing the Divide to endure.
