Sobre este artículo
New York, NY: Free Press, 2007. First Free Press Hardcover Edition [stated]. First ptg [stated]. Hardcover. Very good in very good dust jacket. DJ has slight wear and soiling.. Sewn binding. Cloth over boards. x, [2], 143, [5] p. Index. From Wikipedia: "Shelby Steele (born January 1, 1946) is an American author, columnist, documentary film maker, and a Robert J. and Marion E. Oster Senior Fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, specializing in the study of race relations, multiculturalism and affirmative action. Steele wrote a short book, A Bound Man: Why We are Excited about Obama and Why He Can't Win. The book contained Steele's analysis of Barack Obama's character. Steele then concludes that Barack Obama is a "bound man" to his "black identity." After Obama won the 2008 U.S. presidential election, Steele defended his analysis and claimed that the subtitle of the book was simply a marketing device. He explains Obama's victory by likening him to Louis Armstrong, donning the "bargainer's mask" in his bid for white acceptance. In his analysis, he takes whites who he claims have for decades been stigmatized as racist and had to prove they are not "off the hook."
