America the Racist? (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | H J Harris | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Author H.J. Harris presents an historical overview of the harsh treatment of black Americans, from the founding of this nation, to the racial undercurrents of the 2008 presidential election. He offers a spiritual, biblical approach to show the damage that the paradigm of slavery has done to the nation's soul. America's record in dealing with black Americans is presented through events such as the coup of 1898, the Declaration of White Independence, and the destruction of Black Wall Street. The author applies the Hundredth Monkey Behavior Phenomenon to understand how the slavery experience created and perpetuated certain habits, attitudes, and behaviors that presently impact black and white Americans. The subtle implication of America the Racist? is that the 2008 presidential election represents an opportunity for this country to rise above the shackles of racism and discrimination and truly become the light of the world.
