Editorial Review: Product Description: Challenges dogma and dispels cliches that have long clung to topics involving race, ethnicity and culture. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Dr. Sowell and Mr. ThomasReading Thomas Sowell's essay collection is a frustrating experience. "Black Rednecks and White Liberal" is one of the most schizophrenic books I have ever read. On the one hand, Sowell is a deeply informed and very insightful thinker. He brings a wealth of knowledge to the topics he discusses. With great erudition he casts light on many interesting questions, and he manages a wide ranging global outlook, which I found very useful. I learned a lot from "Black Rednecks". ...

This book has taught me so much of history which isn't taught in the classroom and definitely is not touched on by the liberal media. It seems like these facts of history have been hidden or covered up by our society only to hinder the black community. Being mulatto myself I can see how this books explanation of past events all make so much more sense now. Growing ... Read More Rating: - The Smartest Man in AmericaThe more Thomas Sowell I read, the more I want. Few writers are capable of conveying so much information in so few words. Dr. Sowell concisely relates each fact while composing a greater message, which ultimately stimulates the reader to explore new avenues and ask more questions. The "black redneck" concept debunks the myth of inner city ghetto "culture," which is nothing more than a relocation of white southern redneck "culture."
