Responding to this context, The Racist Social Order, Mind Control, and African Americans presents a collection of revolutionary poetry and historical facts designed to evoke critical thinking regarding issues of social inequities. Author Yolanda Webb shares her thoughts and reflections in an attempt to create solutions designed to deconstruct these inequities, a necessity if we are to move toward a more democratic society.
