I think you'll have to wait a generation or two before you see such a
book. Any pervasive social change takes at least one generation to
effect itself and it's only been about one generation since we were
forcefully made aware of the racial inequities we live by(60s race
riots), and awareness is only the first short step...
It's kind of funny in a way: Two thousand years ago, the Romans didn't
have such problems...  Progress? What Progress?
