Description
What's Going On
Nathan McCall delivers a series of front-line reports on the state of America's races in today's society. This volume challenges readers' assumptions, regardless of their pigmentation or political allegiance. McCall examines the hidden costs of stereotypes and addresses debates on gangsta rap and sexual violence. He also critiques bigotry in white churches and the complacency of the black suburban middle class, while celebrating the heroism of Muhammad Ali and defending Alice Walker's truth-telling.
