Not Black Like Me: The Last Gig (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780595425761)

Not Black Like Me will appeal to those interested in the late 30s-mid 40s when jazz was at its peak in popularity. However, when a black group of Dixieland jazz musicians from New Orleans performed in the South along with a 13 year old white musician who made believe he was black, many problems arose, some of them life threatening. Along the way, the white musician began taking photos and one of the pictures was of a KKKer with his head piece off. Eventually, this man was touted to be the next VP of the US but he realized that the white kid who had taken his picture had to be silenced and the negatives retrieved, one way or another or his political career would be destroyed. The FBI, CIA and NYC police department became a part of the equation and they all took part in a thrilling conclusion.
