Juan Williams’ Enough. I picked up this book after a great post by one of Birmingham’s more prominant bloggers.
I thought this critical look at racial divides in our country was very logical and clearcut, which (as I understand it) is one of the reasons Williams has come under attack for his statements. Too much cold logic and not enough emotion and historical perspective.
As always I posted my thoughts over on LibraryThing.
My advice: Read the book and decide for yourself.
Just two more days…
