readingood 's review for:

Black Like Me by John Howard Griffin
3.0

I'm sure this book was groundbreaking and eye-opening when it was first published, but it didn't age well. Similar to "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee", you knew after the first few encounters that every story in this book was going to end in disappointment. Which is why it took me so long to finish. Wish there was more anger/accountability thrown in the direction of the racist systems and people. Merp. John Howard Griffin has a heart of gold though.
