Title: Not so good
Product review: First off, I'll admit that I didn't read the whole book. Now I'll say my peace on it. Hacker generalizes broadly about the behaviors and sentiments of both whites and blacks. Though white himself, he seems to absolutely despise whites across the board as either racist scum or well-meaning but idiotic. Then he says that Martin Luther King Jr. only came to prominence as a leader of the civil rights movement because the whites in power chose him. It sounds to me as if Hacker thinks that the black population were too ignorant to choose there own leader and allowed the whites to give them their hand-picked MLK Jr. The thought of that makes me ill. Apparently, in Hacker's world view, everyone except himself is either evil or stupid. But it was very entertaining.
