What Next: A Memoir Toward World Peace
by Walter Mosley

Mosley, like many New Yorkers, has tried to make sense of the events of 9/11—and his own reaction to them. He remembered his father’s stories about World War II and how he didn’t think of himself as an American until German soldiers shot at him. How did he feel—and how did African Americans feel—about the unfolding debate of what brought America to this tragic juncture. Was the displacement his father felt, a half century ago, still a part of this new generations’ experience?

In What Next, Mosley addresses these questions and others, inviting the reader into a dialogue that is brilliantly argued, and poetically concise. What Next offers food for thought and is a call to action for African Americans and freedom loving people everywhere.
