There's not a lot of detailed description of horrible things in here, but this book is about race in the time of the civil rights movement, so expect all the usual suspects of that era to be addressed.leannanecdote's review against another edition

I will say that sometimes Baldwin's sentences are difficult to follow, with like, a lot of clauses and commas and I have to carefully find the verb like I'm in middle school English again. I highlighted one as an example:
"But our ignorance and indecision have had the effect, if not of delivering them into Russian hands, of plunging them very deeply into the Russian shadow, for which effect - and it is hard to blame them - the most articulate among them, and the most oppressed as well, distrust us all the more." WHEW.
