Review Quotes:

"Chennault and Alridge have taken it upon themselves to gather a group of truth tellers to shed light in troubling times. I hope readers understand the immediacy of their message. If we don't, then we must accept that we are complicit with the goals of white supremacy, capitalism, imperialism, and fascism."

--David Stovall "professor of Black Studies at the University of Illinois, Chicago"
