Schledorn) Newsgroups: bit.listserv.allmusic Subject: Re: racism and rednecks Message-ID: Date: 5 Feb 90 13:49:00 GMT Sender: Discussions on all forms of Music Reply-To: Discussions on all forms of Music Lines: 15 Approved: NETNEWS@AUVM Gateway Here's a book that is very worthwhile reading: The Pursuit of Inequality, by Philip Green It's about attempts (pseudoscientific and otherwise) to prove that certain classes, races, sexes are somehow inherently inferior and that they therefore "deserve" second-class status. It deserves to be read by anyone who considers this topic. Musical content: this book is highly unlikely to be made into a film with a hit soundtrack. (Whaddaya want, it's Monday!) P. S.: Good points, Greg. Best, Peter.
