Title: I did not like this book.
Product review: This book offers an average-at-best history of American culture. Although some of the heart of the book was interesting, most gave me a flashback to high school history class. There was very little new material. Also, the last chapter in the book was incredibly biased. Although I understand that historians are allowed to be biased, he places entirely too much blame on Ronald Reagan for part of the racial tension in America today. He almost glorifies the Rodney King riot for showing us how much racial tension there really was, and virtually claims Rodney King as some kind of hero. This riot was nothing short of immature. Overall I give the book a 3/10 because it did offer some interesting facts about the early history of diversity in America, but eventually I believe he wandered from his point in the last chapters by pointing fingers.
