"I think Michael Eric Dyson is just terrific. This is a well compiled set of debates with some great intellectuals (Cornel West) and leading pundits from both sides of the aisle (David Horowitz, Bill O'Reilly, Ann Coulter, Dennis Miller, Bill Maher) and many more intelligent people that I was less familiar with.
Dyson and those he debates get very heated and make great points that really highlight all sides of the argument. I think some of the moderators weren't that good *cough Ted Koppel cough* but in general I think all of the debates were also in well structured forums.
I may not agree with Dyson about everything but in general I believe he thinks through the social complexities of race in a very sophisticated way and speaks very well about simultaneous, seemingly contradictory, truths regarding race.
I recommend this book to anyone who wants to understand issues of race in America deeper and why it's not always a black or white issue."
"This book is mostly loquacious cant. It seems to be part of Dyson's effort to publish as many would-be op-ed pieces as full-on books as possible. He didn't have to even write anything for this one. It's simply transcription of select talks and interviews.
If I were Dyson, I would have published this informal review as a book already."
