A letter from the "Acting Assist Sec for Civil Rights" of the Dept of Education. When I read it, I knew he had been a student of Hillsdale College. I researched Hillsdale for my forthcoming book, "By the Waters of Paradise," (new title) and I recognized the arguments. www.ed.gov/media/docume...?

My book, HIDDEN IN PARADISE, is my memoir of the personal toll of anti-Black racism in my American Jewish family.
I love history, and I uncovered a lot, but stories connect past to future. A story I had to tell.
