A Reflection: What a Difference a Day Makes, What About 100 Years? (PB) (2014)

A Reflection is a decade by decade review of African-American history from 1909 until 2009, when Barack Obama was inaugurated as the first Black President. Every aspect of life for African-Americans from the changes that have taken place in our leadership, business and personal finances, our thinking and aspirations, our culture, values, and attitudes, and how have they affected the quality of life and personal growth for African Americans today are presented. Questions looked at are: What are the results of the evolution of Black people over the last one hundred years? What have been the catalysts for the changes or evolution? How have we evolved economically, socially, educationally, politically, and artistically? Has this process of change been a 180 degree transformation, or have we come full circle, or is it more likely that we have detoured on some tangent from an obtuse angle?
