During Racism's Remission is an engaging tale of self-exploration and discovery through poverty, hard work, military service, and academia. Working in hot mid-Atlantic fields, chatting with monks atop a mountain in China, guarding the gates of Pearl Harbor, or walking the streets of Hiroshima, Japan, Dr. Wilson gives us an honest and unflinching account of his triumphs, missteps and crises of faith while overcoming obstacles to enjoy personal and professional achievement. Whether harvesting vegetables in open fields as a child, or planting knowledge in open minds decades later, Wilson shares lessons from a full and adventurous life.
A modern-day everyman, Professor Wilson shares his journey of hardship, joy, loss, and education as the country healed from the racial tension of the 1960s toward a hopeful new identity. Weaving through his personal timeline with humor, sensitivity, and inspiration, Wilson presents a coming-of-age narrative for both him, as the son of southern migrant workers, and for the America redefining itself in the '70s and '80s. Between one period of civil and social unrest in the rearview and the threat of another just over the horizon, he paints an entertaining portrait of a man deftly negotiating life across racial and class boundaries, learning as well as teaching along the way.
