A black writer explores why he and other black people seem to live in fear in a journey through America's history of race. His account includes myth-busting professors at Howard University, visiting a Civil War battlefield with a rogue historian, and a visit with the mother of a friend who was shot down by the police. 2015 National Book Award winner. "Compelling... stunning... A classic of our time." -- Publishers Weekly
