Between Barack and a Hard Place: Racism and White Denial in the Age of Obama by Tim Wise

5.0

This is a powerful book. It is small and short. I highly recommend it. Tim Wise lays out racism 2.0. Racism 2.0 is the current oppressor of minorities. It is not often not blatant; it rides on the privilege of the dominant group (i.e. Whites).

I was introduced to this (as well as issues of sexism and classism) in Soc 101, but this was a great follow up.

P.S. I watched a ten minute video of Wise on youtube. He's a great rhetor. Check him out.
