Outstanding. Haven't read a book that make me think so much in years. Everyone - I mean EVERYONE - needs to read this book. Have already promised my copy to a close friend, and am getting copies to send to several others.

A must-read for Americans willing to face our country's responsibility for creating the world we live in.

Imma be honest the first 4 and last 2 chapters were all I really cared about, and I skipped a lot of the Turkish history in between, but I learned a lot about American imperialism and preservation of innocence that we hold on to- even within American society/ our groups that look like us or belong to our “classes.” A fan of the James Baldwin quotes and intertwining of Mississippi!

I’m conflicted about this book. I wanted it to be a lot of things that it wasn’t, but got a lot out of it that I didn’t expect. There were good parts and bad, and parts I agreed with and disagreed with. I also found it a lot harder to get though than I’d hoped.

I’ve been reading this book on and off for years and finally finished it today. Not because it is a bad book but because it took me literal years to absorb it properly.

Quite possibly one of the best books I’ve ever read.
