Annotation
"Race brings out the full complexity of the thoughts and emotions of both blacks and whites, uncovering a narrative of changing opinions. Interracial couples, preachers and street punks, college students and Klansmen, the nephew of the founder of apartheid and Emmett Till's mother are among the nearly one hundred individuals who talk openly about attitudes that few are willing to admit in public: feelings about affirmative action, gentrification, secret prejudices, and dashed hopes."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
