| book description |

This case-based study of America's yawning divide between blacks and whites through the experiences of a forensic psychiatrist who investigated the horrific serial killer case of the Atlanta murders of Black Children that threatened interracial strife. Liebert witnessed black and white warfare in Selma, a lynching in Macon, Georgia and mediated between the Black Panthers and the Seattle Police Department during uniquely violent race riots of 60's and 70's. His recent positions as staff psychiatrist in two inner city. Milwaukee hospitals, engaged him at ground zero with this country's fastest acceleration of homicides, gang violence and police confrontations with the mainly black citizenry, making him uniquely qualified to address the issues facing law enforcement in urban centers. Essential reading for forensic and mental health professionals as well as those interested in social justice.
