Customer comments on this Youngstown Ohio Book

Youngstown Ohio Black like me

hello my name is josi, im 15, im in ninth grade. I really enjoyed this book because it shows u how the black people were ridiculed because of their skin color which is like wrong, i think, um the thing that stood out to me was that, if a person was black and wanted to like eat in a resteraunt, they would have to eat in the back of the building and not at a table. Anyways i recommend this book to whomever wants to read this book.



Youngstown Ohio Love this Book - Great Learning Oppotunity

This was a fabulous book! A great read on race relations and the experiences of both black and white. Great learning tool for a class or for your own personal knowledge. It really puts things into perspctive!



Youngstown Ohio Captivating.

Black Like Me was easy and hard to read. Easy in terms of its length and writing style, hard because of the issues it dealt with. Every time I read it, it left me feeling a little unsettled, but in a good, constructive way. Though many people say that Griffin writes about a time long past, and that much progress has been made today, it is undeniable that racism still exists to different degrees, and also against other minority races. Most people do not have the courage to do what Griffin did in order to try to understand the situation. My only regret is that I would've liked to know more about how his wife and children dealt with the situation, especially in the aftermath of the publication of this book.
