Larry Mungin spent his life preparing to succeed in the white world. He looked away from racial inequality and hostility, believing he'd make it if he worked hard and played by the rules.

The Good Black asks readers to rethink their ideas about race and is a fascinating look at the inner workings of the legal profession.
