- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The author is so critical of well-intentioned attempts at Overcoming Our Racism that digging ourselves out of this hole seems impossible. Despite arguing against the "just the way it is" mindset, he seems further to ingrain its reality. An important, albeit defeatist, work.
