Yet A Stranger
Why Black Americans Still Don't Feel At Home
"I think [this book] can have a great and positive impact on our collective consciousness about America's most serious unsolved problem."
Julian Bond, Chairman
NAACP National Board of Directors
"Fasten your seatbelt. Deborah Mathis forces you to understand the nuances of being black in America. Du Bois's The Souls of Black Folk did this at the turn of the 20th century, and YET A STRANGER will do it for the next hundred years. A must-read!"
Dr. Ray Winbush,
Director
Race Relations Institute, Fisk University
"Apologists for racial injustice repeatedly claim that racism is a thing of the America's bygone past and that the ills that plague black Americans are mostly of their own making. Mathis shatters this dangerous myth. YET A STRANGER will anger, disturb, and irritate many, but it will make us think deeply about race and racism in America."
Dr. Earl Ofari Hutchinson, Author
The Disappearance of Black Leadership
"Black Americans have been hungering for someone to put modern race relations into perspective, to help people pin down the problem. Deborah Mathis has done it in a way that is smart and grounded while keeping it real."
E. Lynn Harris, Author
