Review: Black Like Me
Paningin ng isang mambabasa - Danae - GoodreadsThis was quite an eye-opener and an amazing story. My one complaint is that its slow (and maybe even boring) in a few places, probably due to the journal style of the book.

Paningin ng isang mambabasa - Laura Santoski - GoodreadsReally interesting and sad now, so I can't imagine how it felt to read this at the time. I was glad that Griffin was careful to phrase his experience as what he felt as a white man with black skin, rather than saying "this is how black people feel." Read full review

Paningin ng isang mambabasa - Aaron - GoodreadsImportant to read, but feels very dated. Moves quickly enough that you don't lose interest. The name dropping of fellow civil rights activists is excessive. He tries to suggest that his poor treatment ... Read full review

Paningin ng isang mambabasa - Sally Hoffman - GoodreadsAn interesting story. Great concept to show how oppressed the African American people were in the USA. Found that it went over things too many times and it dragged on. Read full review
