Genre: Nonfiction--Politics & Opinion
Completed: 20 December 2019
Summary & Review:
Pundit Jim Goad examines modern race relations in America in this collection of essays. From examining local news stories to taking a critical look at privilege and power, Goad examines how being white (and not embarrassed or ashamed of it) is the worst thing possible in today’s mass culture.
This was a fairly interesting read. While Goad is often slandered as racist, whatever that means these days, it is clearly not true as he saves his most vicious scorn for fellow whites. He is especially good when he examines how poor Southern whites have become the scapegoat for rich Northern whites. Also, the articles where he examines the rampant hypocrisy among rich Northern whites are also especially good.
Rating: 6.0
