  1. Abhay Raj Singh Chauhan –

    Interesting topic, but the writing was a bit dense. I struggled to get through it. Still, it’s a conversation starter.

  2. Sanskriti Bhatnagar –

    This book is okay. I didn’t find it particularly groundbreaking, but it was informative enough.

  3. Ashutosh Agarwal –

    I appreciated the book’s focus on New Orleans. However, I felt it could have explored the broader context of Confederate monuments.

  4. Gaurav Singh –

    An absolute page-turner! The way it connects history to current events is brilliant. I learned so much.

  5. Dipanjan Acharya –

    Eye-opening and important. This book made me rethink my understanding of American history. Highly recommend!

  6. Advik Sharma –

    While the subject is important, the book was repetitive and, at times, hard to follow. Not my favorite.

  7. Ashish Koteshwar Mahadule –

    Provocative and insightful! It challenged my preconceived notions and encouraged critical thinking. Read it!

  8. Sadhna Patel –

    Good intentions, but the book felt somewhat preachy. I wish it explored more nuanced perspectives. Decent, but not great.

  9. Arghyadip Poddar –

    Saviano’s perspective is unique and compelling. A must-read for anyone interested in social justice and American history.

  10. Devashish Chaudhary –

    A powerful and timely read. Saviano’s insights are sharp, but the translation felt a little clunky at times. Overall, worth the effort.

  11. Priya Sahani –

    A very important contribution to the conversation on race in America. Everyone should read this.

  12. Chahat Singh Chauhan –

    It is good attempt to bring up the topic about racism. Can be more engaging
