Bell's attempt to spin a tired concept into an interesting novel fails spectacularly. The "Chronicles" are difficult to read at best, thanks to unnatural dialogue and the constantly preaching Crenshaw. I would not recommend this to anyone.

There is only justice and injustice. There is no such thing as justice for groups, only for individuals that may or may not make up groups.

This novel is a must read for everyone. Bell presented a funny yet sadly true concept of reality from the past to the present.

This book provides a chilling account of traditional race relations in the United States, and also forces the reader to confront the problems with many of the proposed modern solutions. I recommend this book to anyone who has ever grappled with the issue of race in this country--even if one does not agree with all of Bell's analysis, the level of thought provoking questions and challenges are outstanding!
