Sanitized Apartheid: The Post-Racial Hoax in South Africa and the United States: Education, Culture, and Society, cartea 2
Autor Arnold Dodgeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 sep 2020
Sanitized Apartheid: The Post-Racial Hoax in South Africa and the United States examines the similar histories of South Africa and the US. After the invasion of foreigners, entire races of people were slaughtered, enslaved, and delegitimized. Heroic figures emerged along the way, only to have their efforts nullified by powerful white people. The historical parallels continued as freedom fighters won victories for the oppressed, in some cases codifying equality under the law. However, a powerful de facto current in the social/cultural environments remains in both countries. The book squarely addresses the vile strain which calls for a halt to protest and an acceptance of what is. The author examines these issues through an exhaustive research agenda and a personal narrative.

Recenzii
``What I am experiencing as I am reading, is the amount of "pride" and gratitude with which my late father would have read the book. Those were stories with which he brought us up, and those are some of the experiences that he would have had to endure. Experiences which he and my mother tried hard to shelter us from, but not close our eyes and minds to the hardships our families had to endure, and yet still rise above. He always made us mindful of the fact that there were people who helped us to pull ourselves up by our "bootstraps". Thank you very much for your efforts and research to bring out the "beautiful" book, and your efforts to bring these injustices to the forefront.´´
