03.11: Who We Be: The Colorization of America
2015-02-14 01:01:37| Powells Books Events Calendar
Race: The greatest social divide in American life, a half-century ago and today. During that time, the U.S. has seen the most dramatic demographic and cultural shifts in its history, what can be called the colorization of America. But the same nation that elected its first Black president is still plunged into endless culture wars. Jeff Chang's Who We Be (St. Martin's) remixes comic strips and contemporary art, campus protests and corporate marketing campaigns, Martin Luther King Jr. and Trayvon Martin into a powerful and timely cultural history of the idea of racial progress.
