Title: Black folks good, White folks bad
Product review: In this award-winning novel for young people, all the black people (with possibly one exception) are honest, kind, hard-working, ambitious, intelligent, and good looking. All the white people (with one or two exceptions) are cruel, dishonest, malevolent red-necks, who persecute the "colored people" for no reason at all. Historically, there's some truth to the setting and events, and we all admit that blacks were sometimes persecuted in the past. But that was then. This is now. Times have changed, but young people are still required to read this one-sided tripe. Let's hope that English teachers will eventually recognize this poorly written novel for what it is.
