Covering : the Hidden Assault on Our Civil Rights by Kenji Yoshino
Reviewed by John Glover, Reference Librarian for the Humanities
If you haven't heard already, this year VCU chose Kenji Yoshino's Covering: the Hidden Assault on Our Civil Rights by Kenji Yoshino for its Summer Reading Program book. This book is a nuanced exploration of identity and the ways that we reveal and conceal it. Yoshino is a poet and a law professor, and this shows through in both his lyrical prose and his dogged argumentation. VCU Libraries has many copies of this book available for checkout, and we also have a Web page with resources about the book.
Available at Cabell Library, Tompkins-McCaw Library for the Health Sciences, and online
