I am a West Reader so I may be a little bias on my review. Race Matters is a piece that takes the current position of many miniority races and forces them to relate to each other. The section on Malcolm and Black Rage hits it on the head. It has started my research on nihilism and allows the reader to jump into new areas of thought. It will expand your mind like all of West's works.

Excellent look at race issues in America that apply today even though the book was written more tha a decade ago.

I found this book hard to follow. His arguments weren't always clear and, honestly, I felt like he was using "big words" to impress his readers. I'll give him one thing: passion. I could feel how passionate he was about his topic, but all in all a hard-to-read book.

Here we have a quick, informative read from the analytical vault of Cornel West's. Quick in the respect that the chapters are short, and there are only a handful. Informative in regards to the amount of insightful analysis which layeth within those pages.
Certain aspects of race in America are indisputable, how to go about fixing those problems is the point of contention. This text is filled with suggestions for individuals to initiate in the hopes of a Black reformation, which will in-turn benefit the whole of American society. Definitely worth your time.
