American History in Black and White

It sometimes get to the point that what we think we know, we are sure we know and when some other stuff is added to what we think we know we suddenly don't think we know what we thought we knew. The author in this book has been researching and digging into this topic for 20 years or so. He presents the history of Black Americans in a wonderfully lucid and terribly plain way. I think it is one of the more provocative and important sources of information that I have delved in this year and I highly recommend it. It is well documented and the things I learned have never been presented to my eyes in this manner ever before.
