reviewed Voices in Our Blood: America's Best on the Civil Rights Movement on March 25, 2020
Voices in Our Blood
This book was a huge disappointment. The essays started out super interesting but as I continued to read I noticed there were a disproportionate amount written by white authors. Also some of them were blatantly racist in that old fashioned least racist of the racists way (looking at you Faulkner essay). Many of the essayists praised Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King jr. (rightfully so) but unnecessarily demonized Malcom X and many other more radical members involved in the black power movement. At the end I looked up the editor and realized of course he was white. So this is a typical white liberal/moderate compilation of essays moderate essays. Some are worth reading but definitely not all.
