Product Overview
An analysis of race relations in America using Milwaukee as a window on the rest of the nation. The author of the bestsellers At Mother's Request and Exit the Rainmaker uses interviews, diaries, letters, and his own experiences as a reporter to assess the progress that has been made since the days of the civil rights movement and to show how much more work is still ahead. He tells his story through a wide cast of characters, from an alderman who threatens guerrilla warfare to a sixties revolutionary who became a school superintendent.
