Pardeep Kaleka, one of the authors of this book, lost his father in a tragic hate crime. Wade Michael Page, a white supremacist who was apparently first exposed to these beliefs while serving in the Army, walked into a Sikh temple in Wisconsin and shot several people. One of those people was the father of this author. The other author of this book, Arno Michaelis, was a founding member of a white supremacist group. These two people met each other and began to discuss the issues and pain that these hateful attitudes and crimes cause for others. This was a very interesting and moving book, and I would suggest this to anyone who was curious about the ideals behind some of these actions.
