Review # 1 was written on 2007-10-23 00:00:00 M Jackson Dyson's argument, while well written, essentially adds up to 200ish pages of "Nuh-uh!" Seldom are the facts backed up by anything other than Dyson's own opinion, and it was actually hard to read this book because of the author's strictly one-sided view. For instance, despite the fact that there are different classes of black Americans, Dyson believes that black entertainers are obligated (that's right, obligated!) to only portray the struggle of the poor or discriminated, because to portray successful blacks would lull whites into believing that there are no problems in the black community. It is arguments like this that made it so I could only read this book 10 pages at a time before I would get too fed up to continue. If Dyson wanted to dispel Cosby's remarks as ignorant, he certainly has not made his case here.

Review # 2 was written on 2007-12-27 00:00:00 Lynne Kellerman In light of Mr. Cosby's crusade/tirade against black america this book was born it does a great job of showing cosby the mediocre student with an honourary doctorate that he didn't earn and a civil rights fight that he didn't want to be involved in in his time.That said I do believe many of cosby's points but this book will show the other side of the agument
