Through parables and essays, Derrick Bell offers an eloquent work
of social commentary on the permanence of racism. Gospel," says
Derrick Bell, and particularly the gospel choir at its best, echoes
the tempos of the soul searching for God's peace in the midst of a
hostile world."Just like the songs of a gospel choir, the pieces in
this book give voice to the hardships faced by African Americans.
Through allegorical stories and fictional encounters, dreams, and
dialogues, it presents fresh perspectives on the different issues
that concern Blacks, such as the message of The Bell Curve, the
Contract with America, the media's handling of Black men, and
corporate greed's responsibility for today's rising White rage" and
subsequent Black blame." Despite their tough subjects, however,
these stories resound with laughter and compassion and a continuing
theme of Christian love. Ultimately, like the gospel songs, they
offer African Americans hope and direction as they travel the
racist world they inhabit.
