Race: How Blacks and Whites Think and Feel About the American Obsession Terkel, Studs
New Pr 1992 New York, New York, U.S.A. 1565840003 / 9781565840003 Hard Cover Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket
Non-fiction, Sociolo 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall DJ has edgewear, principally along the lower rear edge. Book is fresh and clean with solid binding. Because this book involves interviews with black and white adults and young people, spoken word is the perfect vehicle to communicate the diverse feelings about the "American obsession." This is a poignant and emotional journey with a master interviewer who gets people to share their innermost thoughts. Every interview is delivered authentically, with voices and accents conveying the emotions, experiences and histories of each speaker. Some are so wonderful; they merit listening several times. Terkel and the multi-voiced narrators make this an unforgettable, and perhaps even an opinion-altering, experience.

The Great Divide Terkel, Studs
Pantheon 1988 0394570537 / 9780394570532 First Edition First Printing Hardcover Very Good+ in Very Good+ dust jacket
Light edgewear to the DJ which is in mylar cover. Stated First/first. Clean interior with solid squared binding. 1.6 x 9.2 x 6.1 Inches 439 pages In his latest oral history, an appraisal of how the last 10 years have changed us, Pulitzer Prize-winner Terkel ( Working , etc. ) uses the phrase "great divide" to symbolize the breaches which he claims are widening between young and old, rich and poor, among racial groups and within religious communities. He notes, too, a gap in our historical memory of even the immediate past, especially among the young, who tend to confuse celebrity with leadership. Eloquent, firsthand recitations from farmers who are losing their land, their solidarity, and their children to the city or by suicide, contrast starkly with that of an international Wall Street futures dealer, listed in the Forbes 400 register of richest Americans. Observations from a truck driver, a sports columnist, a laid-off steel worker, a striking flight attendant, a Ku Klux Klan member, a Gray Panthers activist and a couple serving time for anti-nuclear demonstrations comprise, along wth a host of others, this portrait of a nation's people riven by conflicting values.
