During Racism's Remission

Between the civil unrest of the 1960s and the threat of increased racial tension just over the horizon, Dr. Wilson examines his life of poverty, military service, and scholarship. Recounting a complicated, but entertaining journey, he presents an atypical path to happiness and fulfillment during a time of healing and reform in America. Does the current social climate hint at a national relapse?
