Why Are Afro-Americans Afraid to Take Off the Blinders

Autor Corky Johnson
en Limba Engleză Paperback
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 irrevocably reshaped American history. This landmark piece of legislation was intended to set the stage for a country free of discrimination and answer's to the growing demands for equal rights of African Americans. Even though it has been more than four decades since this act was passed, there is still much room left for improvement and major changes. In Why Are Afro-Americans Afraid To Take Off The Blinders, Author Corky Johnson combines historical and personal experiences and observations to provide a thought provoking study of the present conditions of African Americans. Johnson's book is more than just a searing social commentary and an expose' of current problems in areas like politics and the education system; it is a relevant compendium of America's history of racism and slavery. In it, the author expresses his discontent at the stagnation of his fellowmen and women while exposing some of the possible reasons why this is the case today. Corky Johnson also raises essential questions on the nature of justice, truth, equality and patriotism while daring readers to confront their own prejudices and do what is necessary to change the present realities. Timely and necessary, Why Are Afro-Americans Afraid To Take Off The Blinders is one man's valiant effort to give voice to millions of people who are still clinging onto the hope for a world of equal rights and opportunities. It is also a wakeup call for others to take a stand and begin the long yet rewarding journey of freedom, change and reform.
