Bloods: An Oral History of the Vietnam War by Black… Tekijä: Wallace Terry
#547 in our old book database. Not rated.
It feels strange to rate something such as the personal histories of these men, and the hardships they had to go through because of American Imperialism sending them to a country that didn't want them there.
I learned a lot of things through these men's stories.

I'm stunned by the sheer range of experiences that black veterans had in and around the Vietnam War. The stories are viscerally honest and bold, yet delicate and cerebral. Collectively, they challenge the reader to think critically about the race and race struggles in the U.S., transnational race relations, and legitimacy of the war and the lasting impact it had on veterans. The book should be read in its entirety as the stories are arranged in such a way they complement one another.
Read this on my own at university. Gripping views on alterity and social justice.
