Color-Blind: Seeing Beyond Race in a Race-Obsessed World Horror Book Review

Is a truly race-netrual society possible?Can the United States wipe the slate clean and surmount the racism of its past?  Or is color blindness just another name for denial?  In this penetrating and provocative book, Ellis Cose probes the depths of the American mind and exposes the contradictions, fears, hopes and illusions embedded in our complicated perceptions of race.  Looking beyond the platitudes and pronouncements that tend to distort reality rather than illuminate it, Cose offers a visionary analysis of the steps we must take if we are serious about finding a true resolution to the thorny problem of race in America.
