Black Like Me
by John Howard Griffin
16/ #30booksummer
Published in 1961 this book was clearly revolutionary as John Howard Griffin disguised himself as a black man to experience Jim Crow South and share what he learned through writing this book and speaking engagements. It made me wonder what it be like if a similar "experience" were to be created in 2018. The Afterward was published in 1976 but I would love to hear additional and more recent reflections - in our post President Obama country.
