Cargando... The Clansman (1905)por Thomas Dixon

Actualmente no hay Conversaciones sobre este libro. ![]() ![]() Recommend - not for literary excellence, but for seeing racism from a historical perspective. I think we forget just how truly vile (in this book, black) racism is, and tend to only see it as a dislike... "he's a racist" seems to mean nowadays that "he doesn't like XXX" and, while we think negatively of racism, the deeply reprehensible actions and opinions that go along with racism are overlooked. This book is good in that it shows the language of racism and it's difficult to read such language. Whereas nowadays the n-word or a monkey-caricature is all that is needed to incite digust, in this book the n-word is a common word and the real vileness that is racism comes out in flaming form. Definitely worth the read. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
