White Ghetto: How Middle Class America Reflects the Decay of the Inner City
Description:
Decaying values. Sexually transmitted diseases.
Fatherless homes. Rampant drug use.
These arent just problems for todays inner cities.
Its the plight of all America.
Much has been said about Bill Cosbys incendiary remarks about urban black culture and its dirty laundry. But in this provocative book, Star Parker, one of todays most controversial commentators, goes even further, proving that urban plight simply reveals a decay that is gnawing its way throughout American society as a whole.
The sexual chaos, values disorientation, and social turmoil we see in our inner cities, Parker argues, is just a magnified reflection of the moral collapse happening all over America: in our schools, our churches, our homes. And this slide toward moral decrepitude is all due to a flagrant dismissal of and assault on Americas tried-and-true values.
With startling statistics and disturbing stories about the increasing secularization and criminalization of the middle class, Parker holds a cracked mirror up to suburbia. Taking on tough subjects such as abortion, drug abuse, sexual politics, and religion, she offers a rousing exploration of the raging cultural war-taking you on a wild, eye-opening tour through the White Ghetto.
Star Parker is the founder and president of CURE, the Coalition on Urban Renewal & Education, a nonprofit organization that provides national dialogue on issues of race and poverty in the media, inner city neighborhoods, and public policy.
