A Study of Post-Racial Narration - Dorothy M Hong - Bog

This book offers a concise review of pertinent terms associated with the study of critical legal theory in post-racial America and the narration style of story telling from outsider looking in or looking up. In moving forward with President Obama ascension in a full election, racial minority members are facing inner inertia for the sake of social harmony while agitated voices from the white community have added to disingenuous elements of lawful integration. This book also contains book reviews from sampling of 2 books by Korean surnamed authors and 2 books by black authors to assess the cost of assertion of rights by persons of color and the benefit of anonymity and silence. They are fiction books by Min Jin Lee (2007), Nancy J Kim (2020), Brit Bennett (2020), and Nafissa Thompson-Spires (2018). This book offers historical context and analysis to couch each author's vantage point in a Post Racial era defined by super sonic technology where sabotage and terror go hand in hand with wealth and celebrity status. Discretion and layers of filters for disclosure and publication are necessary dynamics in reckoning business side of any human interaction by stepping into the shoes of intended audience or consumer. More thought and time in solitary contemplation as well as surveillance and censorship seem to be in place as part daily ritual. Immigrants who are confronted with competing traditions are less prone to take part in the American court system today as they risk bringing either costly or frivolous claims while, at the same time, beguiling, enticing advertisements vis-à-vis misleading but artful presentations have led the way to the newcomer's enduring mocking tone of earlier and settled Americans in checking and curving new comers with dose of reality check.
