Faces At The Bottom Of The Well: The Permanence Of Racism

The Faces at the Bottom of the Well is a thought-provoking and groundbreaking work that sheds light on the persistent issue of racism in America.

Bell's allegorical approach provides a unique perspective on the struggle for racial justice, challenging readers to confront the harsh realities of an unjust system.

Through historical examples and incisive analysis, he argues that African American struggles for equality are doomed to fail as long as the majority of whites remain indifferent to their plight.

However, by abandoning a misplaced faith in inevitable progress, blacks and their allies can create effective strategies to alleviate the burdens of racism.

This book is not just a call to action but a wake-up call for all Americans to confront the uncomfortable truth about race and its impact on our society.
