Summary "In this book, Jim Freeman suggests that the biggest reason America cannot get beyond its racial divide is as simple as it disturbing: Racism is enormously profitable. Rich Thanks to Racism exposes a group of Corporate America and Wall Street billionaires as a driving force behind the public policies that perpetuate racial inequities and cause severe harm to communities of color across the country"-- Provided by publisher.
