Více o knize
Exploring the complexities of American and southern identity, this book combines historical research with personal narrative. Author James Wiggins, raised in rural Mississippi, confronts the falsehoods surrounding race and the legacy of slavery, challenging myths like the existence of "Black Confederates" and the idea of a "postracial" America. He examines how the founding ideals of freedom are paradoxically intertwined with oppression, revealing how white citizens historically reconciled these contradictions by perpetuating a lie about race. This work serves as a poignant reflection on the truths of southern living.
