Review of 'White Rage: The Unspoken Truth of Our Racial Divide' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

I’ve read a decent number of books on institutional racism, and I still learned quite a bit from “White Rage.” The author does a fantastic job of researching, and laying out in painstaking detail, the systematic strategies that federal, state, and local lawmakers have employed to perpetuate white supremacy. While I was aware of many of the high-level themes, I learned a lot about the smaller details. For example, I was aware of how the Iran-Contra scandal led to the crack epidemic, but had never heard of Tom Coleman and the arrests in Tulia, Oklahoma. Definitely worth reading.
