4.0

This was a book that I picked off of the recommended reading list from the Whites Confronting Racism workshop. It was SO GOOD. Its really a serious of childhood memories from a poor, white boy who grew up in the projects of New York. He reflects on his experiences as a sociologist and provides really interesting perspective -- without bogging it down with academic analysis. It was a quick read and I'm dying for someone else to read it so we can talk about it!
