This book does indeed have a "meditation" for each day, accompanied by a religious referenece, reading or psalm. I was not aware when I ordered the book that it had such a religious foundation.

This book helped me to understand that Alan my son is growing up and I need to give him more space so his spiritual being may grow. He now realises his flower inside him can expand. Thankyou

Despite ten years in the United States, I think all this hype about behavioral guides for "white liberals" smacks of reverse racism borne out of a paralyzed Academy. Everyone in a racist society is racist, we hear time and again, but does anyone really listen? As society again turns towards becoming more civil, we see the levels of racism dropping. Hence, as the need for a so-called Antiracism Guide becomes endangered, increasingly fractured, splittist academic groups see trouble where there is none. I have always expected great things of literature and criticism, and my great expectation will be the future dearth of books such as this.

I highly recommend this book for those who claim to understand racism in the context of this society and to understand an African-American person's perspective. I was saying "amen!" to different sections of this book. It is a great read and worth it. It challenges those who never thought they needed to be challenged, in a respectful way. AMEN to this book!!

This book is an excellent guide for white people. I myself am white, and have grown up around both racist and non-racist people. At the time I read this book, I thought my understanding of race relations in America was fair. The author does a great job, however, of making one aware of the extent to which racism has pervaded every aspect of our society. Also, it has many helpful tips for whites who want to avoid being insensitive. This book positively changed both my thinking and behavior. A great book, and essential for those who want to behave in a caring manner.
