they still call me...! America's racial climate through the eyes of an immigrant
is a powerful, unflinching examination of race in America, told across fifty years of lived experience. Written by Jeanne Dykstra-Brooks, PhD, and Stanton M. Brooks, PhD, this narrative traces the journey of a Black immigrant whose life defies stereotypes yet remains marked by the persistent sting of America's most enduring racial slur.
Through personal stories, historical reflection, and cultural critique, the book dismantles simplistic notions of identity and belonging, revealing how prejudice endures even in the face of achievement, dignity, and resilience. At once deeply personal and sharply analytical, they still call me...! challenges readers to confront the contradictions of a nation that celebrates freedom yet struggles with equality.
This is essential reading for students and scholars of social science, political science, and African American studies, as well as for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of how race continues to shape the American experience.
