About the Book

Plain Talk – Volume I is designed to open straightforward conversations about race, racism, stereotypes and other related subjects. Besides definitions, descriptions, explanations, and dialogues, this book also includes vivid examples from a wide range of time periods.

This multifaceted book covers various topics on race like racial slurs, methods that racists use to denigrate people, stereotypes, events that have shown the polarization of races, differing views of black and white society, famous incidents involving race, and other social musings. A number of valid examples are given throughout the book to give you a mental picture of the points that the author is trying to make.

Plain Talk – Volume I provides you a platform for self-examination. Not everyone may agree with all the opinions expressed in this book, but the author hopes that this will get some honest lines of communication open about race relations. This book is not to be accusatory or argumentative, but rather, it is an attempt to exchange intelligent ideas designed to help people understand one another.
