LIFE UNFAIR FOR BLACK AMERICANS? In What’s Race Got to Do with It?, bestselling author Larry
Elder takes on the touchiest topic in American life: Race.
Some Americans think race is the biggest issue this country
faces today. Elder says: What?!? What about the economy,
what about war, what about the security of our borders and
our citizens? IS A HUGE GROUP OF CITIZENS BEING KEPT DOWN BY “THE MAN”? Elder calls for an end to bitching, moaning and whining and
the belief that somebody owes you a job, that self-esteem is
given out for passing “go”, that a black person in a
position of authority is always a good thing, whether or not
they have credentials and experience. He skewers the
loudmouths—and the “mainscream” media—who point to racism as
the root of all problems. Elder explains why Hillary
Clinton doesn’t get it, but Barack Obama does—at least most
of the time. But What’s Race Got to Do with It? has a positive message,
too: there are leaders and role models today who want to
urge everyone to share in the hard work, smart thinking and
optimism that make America great and strong. *Publishers Weekly **Kirkus Reviews ***Los Angeles Times
