Black Like Me by John Howard Griffin

DID NOT FINISH: 13%

I went into this book no knowing what it was about, but knowing that it was recommended by a librarian for a look into African America history. I don't think that a caucasian man wanting to understand racism by "being black" was a good fit for me. At the time, late 50's, it was bold and I'm sure he received praise for attempting what he did. But I would rather read a book written by an African American about the plights of racism and social injustice instead.
