Reduced to Equality examines the life experience and perspectives of one white sociologist who was delivered in the mountains of Kentucky, elevated in a changing community in northern Illinois, gave labor and birth to a biracial princess, and eventually found out that her ancestors were devoted slaveholders. Coming to grips with her new and unexpected discovery, Hensley, with the aid of her princess, realizes that, finally, white people must do more than apologize for our distributed past and present in order to ensure our future success as a land. Hensley's seven-decade journey to better know very well what she phone calls the "socially made, political idea of race" has used her into prisons, universities, and even confrontations with the Ku Klux Klan. In Reduced to Equality, she lays bare her own private vulnerability in order to help bridge the chasm between dark-colored people and white people in the usa.
