I think it's something our generation almost takes for granted because we have never seen it - but it really isn't very far behind us.Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10780185535345559390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6331403748871569013.post-9342060543261518712011-02-02T14:45:03.385-06:002011-02-02T14:45:03.385-06:00I definitely left a comment and it didn't post...I definitely left a comment and it didn't post. This is one of those books I've seen and just never picked up. This is one of those titles with painful material because it's simply unbelievable that segregation was even apart of American society. To think it ended only 50 plus years ago in some parts of the US is even more disturbing. I'm definitely going to get a copy.

One with Wright growing up in the segregated South and the other with Wright as a young man in Chicago.Tony Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11882493965279120558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6331403748871569013.post-50450643896248716382011-02-02T11:44:16.350-06:002011-02-02T11:44:16.350-06:00Red, You should read it.
