His view on the influence of race in society is very one dimensional, and seems to miss the point that being white was one of the few privileges he had growing up and not that white male privilege discards hardships. However, his experience does highlight the inaccessibility to the valued cultural and social capital in society.
This should be seen as biography and not a sociological text. However, it would good to read alongside, and in addition to, sociological and political based books focusing on class and intersectionality.
