Description
This book is a skilled indictment of the terrible failure of our affluent society, even in the 'liberal' North, to meet the racial problem it has created and now perpetuates -- a state of degradation and frustration for millions of its citizens. The immediate cause of the "pathology of the ghetto" is not, Clark argues, the fact of segregation. Rather it is the loss of status and self- respect, the frustration, the overwhelming sense of impotence and defeat that cause apathy, crime, addiction, broken families, squalid living conditions, and all the other symptoms of social pathology. Clark raises the questions, attempts some answers, and proposes a strategy for change within the framework of our present economic and social system. This book is intellectually stimulating; it is necessary reading for everyone interested in the most critical of our domestic issues and should be required for those whites who honestly seek to participate in the civil rights struggle.
