"Exporting American Dreams"
D
id you know that Thurgood Marshall helped draft Kenya's Bill of Rights?
Oh, come on. Do you expect me to believe that? Of course you didn't.
Neither did I. But we'll all have a chance to learn more about this fascinating episode in Marshall's life this summer, when Mary Dudziak's new book "Exporting American Dreams: Thurgood Marshall's African Journey" hits the bookstores.
It gets a great review from Publisher's Weekly. (Go here and scroll a bit more than halfway down.)
