Race Relations: Raw and Uncensored

From the final manuscript of Dr. Oliver Cromwell Cox, professor of sociology and the first person to be selected for the Dubois-Johnson-Frazier Award by the American Sociological Association, "Race Relations: Raw and Uncensored" was revised to preserve this well-documented work.

The graphic and poignant description of events from slavery to the time of his death are compelling, familiar and substantiated—inevitably "aha moments" are frequent. When you must look up a word that you have never seen and your mind is enriched is "an aha moment." When thousands of slaves were freed and set upon society without assimilative support is an "aha moment." As you begin to see clearly the toll in human sufferings and the financial losses of both the victims of racial discrimination and the offending businesses is an "aha moment." Reading about an incident and recognizing similarities in your own life is indeed an "aha moment." When you begin to feel the pain of the victims and the sadness that it generates, and arrive at the conclusion that "Race Relations: Raw and Uncensored" is a book that should be read to enlighten all peoples, and to serve as a historical record of the misery of poor race relations, is a shocking "aha moment."
