Into the Bright Sunshine: Young Hubert Humphrey and… par Samuel G. Freedman

The content of this book was so interesting and important for me to read. However, the writing made the process so tedious! There was so much extraneous information and such an uneven timeline! The history of antisemitism in Minnesota and racism was worse than I had been aware of, and unfortunately, I'm not sure how much has changed. Minneapolis is still an extremely segragated city, and unfortunately Humphrey and his colleagues have very little to show for their efforts. Freedman hardly mentioned the racism inherent in the Minneapolis police department 70-80 years after Humphrey claimed to deal successfully with it.… (plus d'informations)

Into the Bright Sunshine: Young Hubert Humphrey and… par Samuel G. Freedman

Small Victories: The Real World of a Teacher, Her… par Samuel G. Freedman
