Resumen del Editor
Journalist Rick Bowers has contributed to Time, The Washington Post, and USA Today, and his fascinating Spies of Mississippi—about the spy network that tried to take down the Civil Rights Movement—earned a starred review from Booklist. Here, Bowers examines how, in the late 1940s, The Adventures of Superman radio show struck a powerful blow against the Ku Klux Klan when Superman aired episodes pitting the hero against the Klan in an effort to teach young listeners to stand up to bigotry.

Forged in the fires of the Bronx and Kingston, Jamaica, hip-hop became the Esperanto of youth rebellion and a generation-defining movement. In a post-civil rights era defined by deindustrialization and globalization, hip-hop crystallized a multiracial, polycultural generation's worldview and transformed American politics and culture. But that epic story has never been told with this kind of breadth, insight, and style.

When the Great War ended in 1918, the West was broken. Religious faith, patriotism, and the belief in human progress had all been called into question by the mass carnage experienced by both sides. Shell-shocked and traumatized, the West faced a world it no longer recognized: The old order had collapsed, replaced by an age of machines. The world hurtled forward on gears and crankshafts, and terrifying new ideologies arose from the wreckage of past belief.

In 1948 most White people in the North had no idea how unjust and unequal daily life was for the 10 million African Americans living in the South. But that suddenly changed after Ray Sprigle, a famous White journalist from Pittsburgh, went undercover and lived as a Black man in the Jim Crow South. Escorted through the South's parallel Black society by John Wesley Dobbs, a historic Black civil rights pioneer from Atlanta, Sprigle met with sharecroppers, local Black leaders, and families of lynching victims.

Incredible history of the beginning of KKK.
Loved the details but not to detailed so stayed interested the whole time. Narrator search brought me to this book and thoroughly enjoyed the history lesson with one of my favorite narrators. TY.

Worthwhile History, marred by minor errors
This book is particularly worthwhile in contemplation of the anti-democratic trends of present days. It is, however, marred by minor errors. (for instance, superman did not inspire creation of the shadow, who existed several years before Superman himself dId. Superman is also not known as the ”Caped Crusader.”

The willingness to visit the truth
I actually liked the compactness of the book, and the refusal to run with the legends created by some of the participants, instead choosing the truth...which itself was awesome, given what the anti-hate crew did. I would have liked a bit more follow-up, given that the Klan didn't go away after they were exposed and ridiculed, and the methods used in rebuilding the Klan have been used repeatedly by hate groups since.
