Indeed, Black Like Me remains required reading in thousands of high schools and colleges for this very reason. Regardless of how much progress has been made in eliminating outright racism from American life, Black Like Me endures as a great human and humanitarian document. In our era, when "international" terrorism is most often defined in terms of a single ethnic designation and a single religion, we need to be reminded that America has been blinded by fear and racial intolerance before. As John Lennon wrote, "Living is easy with eyes closed." Black Like Me is the story of a man who opened his eyes, and helped an entire nation to do likewise. 650 0 $a African Americans $z Southern States $x Social conditions. 651 0 $a Southern States $x Race relations. 600 10 $a Griffin, John Howard, $d 1920-1980. 651 0 $a Texas $v Biography. 941 $a 8 952 $l GYPE631 $d 20240626014220.0 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417013242.0 952 $l WCPC115 $d 20230629023228.0 952 $l TKPE492 $d 20211118020950.0 952 $l PYAX423 $d 20191001012459.0 952 $l MWPB943 $d 20180712041424.0 952 $l MUPB553 $d 20180712033401.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20170616010124.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=883200841E6911E2B04E07D66AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
