The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America by Richard Rothstein | Conversation Starters
Segregation in America has contributed to so much social strife. Richard Rothstein makes extraordinary revelations about how this came to be and how government policies promoted the segregation that continues to this day. With meticulous research and strong analyses, The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How our Government Segregated America chronicles the untold story. Its well-researched evidence sheds light on a policy of de jure segregation in every presidential administration. It is a history of racism apparent but unrecognized, compelling Americans to act on the injustice done by government policies.
The New York Times calls it powerful and disturbing. Many critics agree that it is a rare book that will be discussed and debated long into the future.
