The Content of Our Character by Shelby Stelle
This book is a thought-provoking exploration of race relations in America. The author, an African-American scholar, shares a series of personal reflections, anecdotes, and analyses to challenge both liberal and conservative dogmas about race. He argues that self-help, self-esteem, and self-reliance are the keys to solving many of the problems in black communities, and criticizes the culture of victimhood that he believes undermines these values. The book also examines the role of race in education, employment, and criminal justice, providing a nuanced and balanced perspective on these complex issues.
