A true story about the author who, in the 1950's, took medication to darken his skin, and journeyed through the southern states to record the true actions of whites against the blacks. Though he tries to remain objective, his entire being is quickly pulled deep beneath the surface of mankind, and is shown the darkest depths of mans' heart

Anyone looking for a great and historic account of the 1950's or racism.

The authors kind and objective treatment of all peoples, as it showed the true nature of others.

Shocked that humanity could sink to such a degraded level.

Was a brave man, who risked his life, his family, and his sanity for the sake of exposing the truth.

It was an amazing book, and really changed the way I looked at people.
