Beginning with a series of lynchings and ending with a series of apologies, Biss takes the reader on a journey across the country, from New York to California to the Midwest, examining the legacy of race in America and its impact on individuals, families, and communities. The book is divided into four sections, each one focusing on a different aspect of race and its role in shaping American society. In the first section, Biss explores the history of race, from biblical Babylon to the freedman's schools of Reconstruction, and the ways in which racial privilege has been preserved over time. She also examines the role of religion in perpetuating racial inequality, drawing on religious pamphlets and reality television shows to make her case. In the second section, Biss turns her attention to the present, discussing the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the ways in which white flight has contributed to the racial divide in America. She teaches in a Harlem school and reports for an African American newspaper, providing a unique perspective on the experiences of people of color in America.
Начиная с серии линчеваний и заканчивая серией извинений, Бисс проводит читателя в путешествие по всей стране, от Нью-Йорка до Калифорнии и Среднего Запада, изучая наследие расы в Америке и ее влияние на отдельных лиц, семьи и сообщества. Книга разделена на четыре раздела, каждый из которых посвящен различным аспектам расы и ее роли в формировании американского общества. В первом разделе Бисс исследует историю расы, от библейского Вавилона до реконструкторских школ вольноотпущенника, и способы сохранения расовых привилегий с течением времени. Она также рассматривает роль религии в увековечивании расового неравенства, опираясь на религиозные памфлеты и реалити-шоу, чтобы доказать свою правоту. Во втором разделе Бисс обращает своё внимание на настоящее, обсуждая последствия урагана Катрина и то, каким образом бегство белых способствовало расовому разделению в Америке. Она преподает в гарлемской школе и ведёт репортажи для афроамериканской газеты, предоставляя уникальный взгляд на переживания цветных людей в Америке.

Dans la première section, Biss explore l'histoire de la race, de la Babylone biblique aux écoles reconstructrices du libre-arbitre, et les moyens de préserver les privilèges raciaux dans le temps. Elle examine également le rôle de la religion dans la perpétuation des inégalités raciales en s'appuyant sur des pamphlets religieux et des émissions de réalité pour prouver qu'elle a raison. Dans la deuxième section, Biss attire son attention sur le présent en discutant des conséquences de l'ouragan Katrina et de la façon dont la fuite des Blancs a contribué à la division raciale en Amérique. Elle enseigne à l'école Harlem et fait des reportages pour un journal afro-américain, offrant une vue unique des expériences des gens de couleur en Amérique.

Bir dizi linçten bir dizi özür dilemeye kadar, Biss okuyucuyu Amerika'daki ırkın mirasını ve bireyler, aileler ve topluluklar üzerindeki etkisini araştırarak New York'tan Kaliforniya'ya, Ortabatı'ya kadar ülke çapında bir yolculuğa çıkarıyor. Kitap, her biri ırkın farklı yönlerine ve Amerikan toplumunu şekillendirmedeki rolüne odaklanan dört bölüme ayrılmıştır. İlk bölümde Biss, İncil'deki Babil'den freedman canlandırma okullarına kadar ırkın tarihini ve ırk ayrıcalığının zaman içinde nasıl korunduğunu araştırıyor. Ayrıca, ırksal eşitsizliği sürdürmede dinin rolünü, davasını kanıtlamak için dini broşürlerden ve gerçeklik gösterilerinden yararlanıyor. İkinci bölümde, Biss dikkatini günümüze çevirerek Katrina Kasırgası'nın etkilerini ve beyaz uçuşun Amerika'daki ırksal bölünmeye nasıl katkıda bulunduğunu tartışıyor. Bir Harlem okulunda ders veriyor ve bir Afrikalı-Amerikalı gazetesi için rapor veriyor ve Amerika'daki renkli insanların deneyimlerine benzersiz bir bakış açısı getiriyor.
