2.The Reluctant FundamentalistThe Reluctant Fundamentalist
from Harvest Books
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
I was hooked at the first page. I love the narrator's style: you are the listener and can just imagine sitting opposite Changez in Lahore's Old Anarkali: definitely those who have been, and I hope also those who have not. Since, I believe, this book gives a wonderfully nuanced insight into the... more info

from Random House
Price: $14.93

Customer Review:
This book provides well-written insight into growing up as a black child during the Depression. Maya Angelou is wonderful with her use of words and imagery. I was greatly reminded of my own childhood and what being a kid really meant. Written in first person, she addresses childhood fears, respect... more info

4.White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged SonWhite Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son
from Soft Skull Press
Price: $11.16

Customer Review:
This book was given to me and I did not finish it.
What I read offended me - as a Caucasian.
This Tim Un-Wise knows he is preaching to the choir of self loathing rich white folks who are left wing cooks full of guilt from what some of their ancestors did.
However it also seems to... more info

from Three Rivers Press
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:

Sheesh....if Kozol is suppose to be some type of expert in public education, you think he would have marshaled a few facts to bolster his case. If, as other reviewers assert, the target audience for this book is the comfortable suburban parents and schools, then the book has failed.... more info

6.[no image]Long Walk to Freedom: The Autobiography of Nelson Mandela
from Little Brown Company

Customer Review:
A must read for all, especially my generation (1964) and younger. We need to ensure that what South Africa went through and the racism present in the U.S. is never allowed to return. Any racism no matter how small or seemingly insignificant needs to be stamped out. Wouldn't it be nice if someday we... more info

8.A Hope in the Unseen: An American Odyssey from the Inner City to the Ivy LeagueA Hope in the Unseen: An American Odyssey from the Inner City to the Ivy League
from Broadway
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
This book is another ghetto story that has a lot of rhetoric regarding "inner city" life that is packaged to appeal to those who have no idea that this is pure bulls**t. In the book the high school is described as a place where learning is discouraged and success is frowned upon. I was raised in... more info
