NOTES
Read by JD Jackson
In 1955, the killers of Emmett Till, a Black Mississippi youth, were acquitted because they were White. Forty years later, despite the strong DNA evidence against him, accused murderer O. J. Simpson went free after his attorney portrayed him as a victim of racism. The age of White supremacy has given way to an age of White guilt - and neither has been good for African Americans. Through articulate analysis and engrossing recollections, acclaimed race relations scholar Shelby Steele sounds a powerful call for a new culture of personal responsibility
