Book Reviews of Privilege, Power, and Difference

Book Review: Hurt people- hurt people
Summary: 1 Stars

This book adds nothing that isn't known about problems with discrimination and does nothing to heal. the idea the author makes that we must stop wounding before we can experience healing gives me an uncomfortable feeling he's out to throw bricks through supermarket windows and to breed hate and contempt until he becomes one of privilege. I feel this book is filled with venom that will hurt and not heal. If you are a person of privilege and have no idea and are looking for a book to give you a clue into the hurt and pain that minorities feel read this book. If you want to fill yourself with rage and fuel your hatred for the privileged read this book.
