Ain't capitalism a bitch? Copies of "You're A Racist" are available for $20 at www.thebrickofgold.com. You're A Racist is a collection of powerful, funny, insightful, somewhat random thoughts on race in America by artist and author Nate Fish. "The notes in this book are simply reflections of my lifelong inner struggle to understand myself and my country," Fish says. "Some are contradictory, I know. Others are extreme. All, to me, are sensible." You're A Racist, designed by The Independent Group, contains an extended introduction, anecdotes, and protest-style posters of statements ranging from personal to philosophical. One says, "Radicals do not have radical ideas. We have almost embarrassingly childish notions about fairness... We're all born radicals and revolutionaries." This book will leave you feeling inspired and a bit pissed off, like the revolutionary you were born to be.
