Praise for Sellout: Musings from Uncle Tom’s Porch

“African Americans have been told for two generations that they are supposed to be liberal. Ron Miller’s journey serves as an affirmation that it is okay to be both black and conservative.” ~Niger Innis, national spokesperson, Congress On Racial Equality

“Ron offers a personal, poignant and spiritual account of a journey through the quagmire of race in America, a journey that leads to redemption for all. Challenging and conciliatory, Americans of all races will be stirred by this book.” ~Ken Blackwell, co-author of the No. 1 bestselling book The Blueprint: Obama’s Plan to Subvert the Constitution and Build an Imperial Presidency

I read this book non-stop in one weekend. It was just too good to put down. The exposure of the hypocrisy on the way both black and white "progressives" think is powerful. The first three chapters grab the reader because they are revealing, open, and entertaining, then lead you to down a path of enlightened logic to counter the populist emotion-based "truth". Ron Miller presents this story with fact rather than belief. Even conservatives can go overboard on rhetoric, but Ron stays on a path of clear, insightful reasoning. Ron's story is a great one because its authenticity based on experience erodes the dismissive rhetoric of the left while his use of actual quotes and statistics debunks the liberal myth. This book is a revelation regardless of your race or political leanings. Conservatives will find it refreshing and liberals will gain a better understanding of racism turned upside-down." ~ James Ward, Author of Wealth Virtues
