Opens eyes on reality of US that many have already been aware, but not as severe
This book was really great. Definitely some satire in having the author say it's a good idea to go to certain areas as a Black person or POC, but that was obvious. I read a lot about Jim Crow laws and other racist ideas that the US holds. I felt this was a great eye opener on politics and loopholes Racists have been able to get through. If you're reading up on American history I definitely recommend to add this to your list. It was difficult to not get upset on how Black people and other minorities were-- still are being treated in America. Very eye opening.

Should be reqired reading for those less than 20
This is a very good book for those of us who are historians. The South has shown that it will give up on its past with extreme difficulty. I am a very proud Southerner and love the region and the people in it, as I am one of Its sons. Reading this book and living in the South today make you realize that the past live on due to the isolation of the different groups and the insular lives that sparse population provides, making ways of thinking llve on until those lives are gone. We will see a very different South in 20 years because thouse thoughts will die and new people will move in. Still for us historians to look at how much has changed is very special. Should be required reading in most liberal arts schools for those less than 20 years old.

OMG....You Had To Be A Genius!
The complexities of these laws was so ridiculous I don't know why anyone who followed them wasn't judged as a genius fir remembering all of them. Makes the white authors of these laws seem pretty ignorant! Unbelievable but is happening again with all the WOKE bs going on.
