Answer the following questions in your own words with your own thoughts & opinions about chapters 1-4:
1. Do some research about this book. Who are the authors, what got them interested in this topic & why did they decide to write "The Race Beat"? Which co-author has a connection with northwest Alabama & what is that connection? What did the authors want to accomplish? How is this book regarded now?
2. Talk about Gunnar Myrdal. Who was he? What was he researching? What did he think he'd find in America, and what did he actually find? Why do the authors begin their book with him?
