Description
John Howard Griffin's journey to understand and confront racism in America is one of the most powerful and enduring accounts of its time. In 1959, he underwent a transformation that allowed him to experience life as an African American in the segregated Deep South.
This groundbreaking work, newly edited from the original manuscript, provides a unique and unflinching look at the realities of racism in America during the 1950s. The story has earned respect from civil rights leaders and sparked important conversations about racial intolerance and human rights.
More than 50 years after its initial publication, this edition remains a vital reminder of the need for ongoing dialogue and action against prejudice and fear. A powerful and thought-provoking read, it serves as a timely warning that America has faced similar challenges before, and one that continues to resonate today.
