Some of My Best Friends Are Black: The Strange Story of Integration, is an interesting read about a subject nobody in America wants to dive into. Instead of taking the usual route discussing overt inequality, Colby dissects the race politics through School Integration /School Busing, The Myth of Suburbia, New York's Advertising Industry and last but not least Religion-by way of the Catholic Church. A very well written informative book, with lots of historical anecdotes that should pique the interests of those who care to disregard or seem oblivious to the ever persistent color lines of Americana.
