Readers' Review: "Dreams from My Father" by Barack Obama
http://thedianerehmshow.org/shows/2009-01-22/readers-review-dreams-my-father-barack-obama
As the first black president of the "Harvard Law Review," Barack Obama received an advance from a publisher in 1995 to write a book. He decided to tell the story of his family in the hopes it might help people understand the fissures of race, class, and identity in America. Diane invites listeners to join a Readers' Review of our 44th President's first memoir.
