註釋

The author, a white man working as bureau manager and columnist at the Harlem office of the Chicago Defender, presents systemic racism in mid-twentieth-century America as primarily an economic issue. Conrad argues that corporate greed has fostered white supremacy in order to keep the Black and white working class divided and thus delaying progress for all. He chronicles the Great Migration and the Harlem Renaissance; critiques the skewed portrayal of African Americans in the white press; and paints a grim picture of segregated housing. (Adapted from Kirkus Reviews, March 21, 1947)
