After moving to New York City for college, Macon begins robbing white passengers in his taxicab, setting off a manhunt for the black man presumed to be committing the crimes. When his true identity is revealed, Macon finds himself to be a celebrity and makes use of the spotlight to hold forth on the evils and invisibility of whiteness. Soon he launches the Race Traitor Project, a stress-addled collective that attracts guilty liberals, wannabe gangstas, and bandwagon riders from all over the country to participate in a Day of Apology--a day set aside for white people to make amends for four hundred years of oppression. The Day of Apology pushes New York City over the edge into an epic riot, forcing Macon to confront the depth of his own commitment to the struggle. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePeopled with all manner of race pimps and players, \u003ci\u003eAngry Black White Boy\u003c\/i\u003e is a stunning breakout book from a critically acclaimed young writer and should be required reading for anyone who wants to get under the skin of the complexities of identity in America.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adam Mansbach\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Crown Publishing Group (NY)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/08\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.10w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781400054879\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eIngram Advance\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2005 pg. 53\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/06\/2005 pg. 21\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdam Mansbach is the author of the novel \u003ci\u003eShackling Water\u003c\/i\u003e and the poetry collection \u003ci\u003egenius b-boy cynics getting weeded in the garden of delights\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crown Publishing Group (NY)","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44319334662259,"sku":"9781400054879","price":21.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_e848aab3-760b-45ab-a330-9cd29e674a7e.jpg?v=1771418749","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/angry-black-white-boy-9781400054879","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
