Barnes & Noble It's Not Easy Being Green: A Black Dartmouth Man's Perspective on America in Essays, Notes & Letters, 2008 - 11 at CoolSprings Galleria in Franklin, TN
With the election of Barack Obama in 2008, Americans demonstrated that they could step out of their comfort zones somewhat and entrust the nation's top job to a black man. While race remains a touchy subject in this country, there is a hunger in the public for an honest and comprehensive discussion of how far this nation has come in terms of race relations -- and how far it still needs to go. These essays, written by a black graduate of an Ivy League college, add a unique and refreshing voice to America's long-overdue national conversation on race.
