Like it is

One of the first references I attached myself to in the course of figuring out what I thought of all thsi racil stuff was "A Documentary History of the Negro in the United States of America." Literally encyclopedic in scope, it's a collection of writings by Black folks that stretches from pre-revolutionary war days to the 60's (last I checked). The editor of the series, Dr. Herbert Aptheker, has passed recently.

Walking past the TV, I saw a reply of an interview Gil Noble did with Dr. Aptheker a few years ago. I didn't know the good doctor was a white guy.

Mr. Noble also interviewed Greg Palast, a reporter working for the BBC. I will be looking up a number of the subjects of THAT discussion.
