Synopsis

The anti-white racism of the political left remains one of the few taboo subjects in America. In this book, David Horowitz, a former confidante of the Black Panthers, lays bare the liberal attack on “whiteness,” the latest battle in the war against American democracy.Horowitz acknowledges that America’s political culture is the creation of white, European, primarily Christian males. But it is these very men and their heirs that have led the world in abolishing slavery, establishing the principles of ethnic and racial inclusion, and creating a society of unparalleled rights and opportunities that people of every race and creed continue to flock to. Horowitz points to the hypocrisy of this and challenges racism in all its forms, especially the hidden ones.

This is an extremely hard book for me to rate or review. It was hard to read. It was hard to read in the areas where I agreed and where I disagreed. First, I don't think Horowitz is a racist. Despising some of the militant tactics of individual partisans of 'social justice' does not automatically ma......more

Goodreads review by Armand on September 24, 2014

SAMPLE PASSAGE: As a visitor reaches the end of the hall (at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial on the site of the old Lorraine Motel, in Memphis, Tennessee, where King was assassinated), however, he turns a corner to a jarring, discordant sight. Two familiar faces stare out from a wall-size monume......more

Goodreads review by Tom on July 13, 2019

Published in 1999, this collection of essays by a former leftist turned conservative reads like the prologue to today's politics and the insanity of much of the left. The "policy" sections are less interesting than his in-the-trenches descriptions of his personal experiences with members of the Blac......more

Goodreads review by Kevin on August 03, 2016

David Horowitz's Hating Whitey is not just a book on how politically correct it is to hate white people. It's also about Marxism, liberal activism, and how they both have infiltrated our universities. In the racial portion, he cites case after case of black on white hate crime and related statistics,......more
