"If Blacks and Whites truly become serious about solving the race problem in America, this book is honest enough to layout the most profound problems that need be addressed. Someone must have the intestinal fortitude to not only reveal the awful cancer growing within America's vital organs, but to bear the stench of it while performing laborious surgery to remove it for the survival of us all. If not now, when? If not us, whom?"
—Excerpt from "The Great Divide Between Blacks & Whites"

The author of "Black Survival in White America: From Past History to the Next Century" has done it again. She now exposes our innermost thoughts and views that we speak every day, but keep hidden within our own ethnic groups. No one is spared in this one.
