Unfortunately, I apparently get to be the first poster on this book, and I have to say I couldn't read it. I'm not sure if it was the style in which it was written, or the nude dance scene coupled with boxing early on that turned me off.

You really should finish the book. You left off when it looked like this would be a "hate whitey" type book but soon after that section it changed into something MUCH BROADER.

And what was the problem with the scenes your read about? Nothing much different there than what you would see on HBO or WWF (or that new wimpy WWE name). I really suggest you finish the book. That early scene was about as risque at it got.

I did get further than that, that was what stuck in my mind. No, I didn't see a "hate whitey" theme coming, just more descriptions of how ugly racism was. The scene where they were trying to collect money from a carpet that was electrified wasn't very pretty. As for HBO or WWF, I don't watch either. Anyway, back later, off to work.
