A vigorous debate is taking place in our country over affirmative action, but the author argues that this is not the proper debate. The proper debate, he says, should be eliminating the Civil Rights Act in its entirety. The Act has turned out to be vastly different from what was promised by our leaders in 1964. The book argues that this story is about the betrayal of America, about a small group of the elite, many of whom acted in good faith, but had no confidence in the people. The author says the elite believe we are not capable of solving our own problems, and believe that the elite are needed to guide and rule the rest of us.
