Black Like Me
reviewed on + 3559 more book reviews


I read this book from the school library in 1972. I was shocked at how blacks were treated in the south. I was in high school and I left my books on the shelves so I could use the restroom. I never had a book stolen or destroyed in high school. When I came out the book was stolen.When it was returned to the school library it was hacked to death, destroyed. I lived in a Northern suburban city and I was taught God created all people equal at home and church. I was shocked.
