Second City Confidential : The Black Experience in Chicago

Chicago is ground zero for the political class that rules what's left of America today. The "Chicago Way," shorthand for political corruption and violence, has produced President Barack Obama, the half-white, inexperienced Senator whom the American voters elected to prove they were not racist. This book explains how this came to pass.Second City Confidential is the history of black experience in Chicago, which ultimately produced such political titans as Jesse Jackson, Harold Washington and President Barack Obama. It explains how Obama began his career as a "community organizer" in Chicago, mobilizing resentful blacks to seek concessions from the political system, and how he first ensconced himself in academia, then in the U.S. Senate, and now in the White House.In Second City Confidential, Paul Kersey, author of Escape from Detroit: The Collapse of America's Black Metropolis, and VDare.com columnist James Kirkpatrick offer insights into why and how the streets of Chicago became deadlier than a war zone. It is a history lesson, one told without political correctness or academic buzzwords , which explains the economic conditions of majority-black areas of the city and why these areas have descended into what one police officer labeled "tribal warfare."
