From Coal to Cream was very intriguing. Though I understand that not everyone in the world looks at race the way we do in America, Robinson's discussion of how Brazilians almost divorce themselves from the concept of race by looking, literally, at the color of one's skin was eye-opening and insightful. His descriptions of one's color: "...before midnight and after midnight..." were accurate - when I read the words I could 'see' the color of that person. Even with the lack of a concept of race they (Brazilians) still have a stratified society where the lighter you are the farther up the social and political ladder you tend to be and conversely the darker the farther down.
I really enjoyed book and would highly recommend it.
