This review is from: How the Poor Can Save Capitalism: Rebuilding the Path to the Middle Class (Kindle Edition)
Good book by an inspiring leader, but I think the book has 2 faults; 1) while the book is billed as a way to help the poor, very frequently the author seems to bring race into the conversation. While clearly there are ties between the two and the author has a great deal of personal passion for racial equality, I think this detracts from the potential and accessibility of a book whose title and assumed focus has no direct ties to race.
