Beskrivelse
At a time when the dialogue concerning Black and White people in America is more crucial than ever, it is important to approach the conversation with the sense of urgency required to eliminate the historic strain between the two founding races of this country once and for all. If we continue to kick the proverbial can down the road, we will only be nursing a raging ulcer in the system which will continue to plague our children and our children's children in unpredictable ways.
As any great problem solver knows, in order to solve a problem, you must first identify it. Red, White, And Black does just that. It delves deep into the historic relationship between Black and White people to expose the roots of the weeds that spring up from time to time to choke out any resemblance of a nation that is supposed to have moved far beyond Slavery and Segregation. Whenever tensions reside just beneath the surface of an environment, there is always a chance that the slightest agitation will provoke those tensions to rear their ugly heads in a violent and tumultuous manner. Red, White, And Black is devoted to preventing that precarious outcome from happening.
We can no longer ignore that Black and White people largely live in two different Americas, separate and unequal. What changes are America willing to make to truly give liberty and justice to everyone in this nation? We have reached the time in America where the American Dream has to put up or shut up. Either America will finally do what is necessary to make it equally accessible to every American, including Black people, or it is time for Black people to consider other options. MLK once said that "We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools." But today, Black people have found themselves saying, "We must determine that if we cannot live together as brothers that we will also not perish together as fools." Is it time for Blacks and Whites to consider splitting up like the old Soviet Union did? Can America be saved? These questions and more are addressed in Red, White, And Black.
