In this stirring book, two friends--a black minister and
a white businessman--discuss candidly the hang-ups, stereotypes,
and sins that inhibit interracial friendships. Some people
may think that racism is no longer a problem in our society,
but David Anderson and Brent Zuercher make an effective case
for just the opposite: both black and white people still harbor
wrong assumptions and resentments toward each other...
Believing that the church is called to a deeply felt reconciliation
between the races, Anderson and Zuercher strive to understand
each other.
They hash out their differences, giving voice to feelings
most of us have had but would never express out loud. The
result is a book that provokes thought, arouses emotion, and
ultimately spurs actions, stressing that the most effective
way of dealing with the many facets of racial reconciliation
is through real an d connected friendships.
