White Power And The Fade From Black
$10.65
When Barack Obama was elected president in 2008, many claimed that Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous dream had come true. Why, then, do a disproportionate number of black men and women still endure prison, poverty, and discrimination in 2017? In White Power and the Fade from Black, author TRKA Q dives headfirst into the impossibly difficult topic of race relations in America. Beginning with the separation of light from darkness in the book of Genesis, TRKA Q launches into a sweeping discussion of race as it pertains to religion, evolution, war, slavery, and mass incarceration. These subjects serve as compelling lenses through which to observe the tense interactions of blacks and whites through the ages. Though black and white form the center of the discussion, the ominous power of money-what TRKA Q calls "the green race"-casts a long shadow over what remains a fraught relationship. Moving, profound, and often funny, White Power and the Fade from Black is an important meditation in a seemingly unsolvable cultural challenge and a must-read for anyone who seeks to better understand race in America.
