Instead of celebrating life and encouraging youngsters that they can overcome, the book seems to be a angry diatribe against many. No one makes it on their own, I don't care what race, color, creed, gender, or politics you are from. Mr. Thomas had help: the nuns who taught him, the government which opened a door for him to be employed, and last but not least the very community which clarence thomas comes from, the African-American community he has distanced himself from. It was those sons and daughters of slaves who in the face of great opposition,and marginalization built schools, churches, unions, businesses and the organizations which would march and advocate civil rights and justice for all(which includes the NAACP Thomas so disdains). Now, Thomas says his yale degree isn't worth fifteen cents. Amazing. An angry man sits on the bench of the supreme court,and while in office writes a bitter autobiography against his community, and others. I do not hate Clarence Thomas. The pressures of bigotry are ongoing and affects a man from the cradle to the grave. Thomas needs a healing and in my prayers, I will daily interceed for this man's soul and mind. He can still turn out to be a great, and wise, and prudent justice. Right now, though, he comes off as a hurting, bitter,and frightening individual I think something is very wrong inside of clarence thomas.
