I am doing this research on the impact of slavery on the alienation of Black’s self identity and would like to use his book as a source. I have read some excerpts but would like to grasp the book fully. Would anyone be able to give me the main most important points of his book?
How could I use his experience of not being able to be fully himself considering his alienation with both groups he would be supposed to connect with, to demonstrate the impact that slavery and perhaps further segregation during the Jim Crow era on Black’s self identity?
