1.		Faces At The Bottom Of The Well: The Permanence Of Racism from Basic Books Price: $2.46 Customer Review: This is a very interesting and engaging book. The book is a collection of fictionalized, race themed, stories that challenge common beliefs about race. For instance, what if there were an Atlantis style utopia that only African Americans could live? What would be the reactions of whites?

2.		Silent Covenants: Brown v. Board of Education and the Unfulfilled Hopes for Racial Reform from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $5.97 Customer Review: This is a book that I think anyone interested in the Civil Rights movement should read. It will make you think about the Brown v. Board decision in a different way. The book puts the decision into the context of the times, while shocking you with Bell's main argument. While I found Bell's argument... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

4.		After the Storm: Black Intellectuals Explore the Meaning of Hurricane Katrina from New Press Price: $5.00 Customer Review: I loved this book, a collection of short essays that discuss the meaning of race and class in the aftermath of Katrina.

5.		Ethical Ambition: Living a Life of Meaning and Worth from Bloomsbury USA Price: $2.50 Customer Review: If you want to listen to Bell talk about how great he is and all of his accomplishments, this is the book for you. I took very little away from the book. I found myself disliking Bell after the first few pages, making the rest of the book very difficult to read. I literally laughed when I got to the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

7.		Afrolantica Legacies from Third World Press Price: $11.95 Customer Review: Derrick Bell is the well known former Harvard law professor who left his tenured position at Harvard because of the school's refusal to deal equitably with women of color.

8.		When Race Becomes Real: Black and White Writers Confront Their Personal Histories from Lawrence Hill Books Price: $6.75 Customer Review: When Race Becomes Real is probably the best book to come across my desk in two years. Bernestine Singley and the other contributors have managed to take a tension-laden subject -- racism -- and approach it with the deepest honesty possible. The result is not a book that will send people reeling away... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

9.		Mississippi Harmony: Memoirs of a Freedom Fighter from Palgrave Macmillan Price: $11.76 Customer Review: This book makes me so proud because Mrs. Winson Hudson is my cousin.

10.		Gospel Choirs: Psalms Of Survival In An Alien Land Called Home from Basic Books Price: $2.58 Customer Review: Once again Derrick Bell artfully weaves fiction in to the fabric of what are essentially life lessons on race in America.

The test for me with any book is whether there are quotes or... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom
