pretty good

As a feminist and white Woman, I empathize with the experiences of African Americans, and am happy to combat the white patriarchal paradigms of hatred in the U.S. This book, while taking no real risks, is helpful in demonstrating how whites can often insult and abuse African Americans without 'realizing it'. I suppose bell hooks is a more interesting and transgressive writer, and this book lacks appropriate feminist content; the incredible variety and richness of contemporary feminist discourse goes almost unmentioned here. Still, this is a book all eurocentric people need to read.
