Review of Race (2016) by Kevin M. W — 21 May 2016
Destined to put American children to sleep in thousands of eighth grade classrooms across the country here paradoxically is a work that chooses to point out the evils of racism all while racist itself, like the town drunk railing against alcoholism as closing time in the bar approaches.
While it discusses that Americans had no right to hold their noses at infamous Nazi racism against Jews, the work itself grants Mr. Owens (whose story this supposedly is) only the most cursory of glances.
Still, it is so inoffensively offered that it's very mediocrity it will be presented as bonafide history, the work as bonafide work, mainly because as I write this (2016) no one has seen fit to yet give the man his due.
