Struggles in the Promised Land: Towards a History of Black-Jewish Relations in the United States
If you enjoy social commentary presented in a humorous way or if you like author Larry Wilmore, I feel it's safe to say you would enjoy this book.
I might have rated it four stars if it was a book I owned and could pick up at my leisure to read a chapter/scenario one or two at a time. However, I borrowed mine from the library and found that sitting through it in one or two single reads found my attention wandering after a while.
