5.0 out of 5 stars Captivating reading from first page to last 13 April 2010
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Nobody Called Me Charlie: The Story of a Radical White Journalist Writing for a Black Newspaper in the Civil Rights Era is the autobiographical chronicle of author Charles Preston (1911-1983) with emphasis on his days serving as the only white worker (who happened to be a Communist) at a black newspaper. His job involved openly portraying the pervasive racism of the 1950's as he wrote about work, local politics, the civil rights struggle, travel, sports, business, and more. Preston ultimately presents a challenge to white readers, claiming that in order to support racial justice, they must abandon their whiteness as he did. The chronicle of an extraordinary, unabashed, and determined man and his commitment to socialism and racial solidarity, Nobody Called Me Charlie is captivating reading from first page to last.
