520    The acclaimed author of To Sir, With Love recalls his 
       lifelong struggle against ignorance and racism while 
       sharing a train ride with a bigoted white neighbor. On a 
       commuter train traveling from New Canaan, Connecticut, to 
       New York’s Grand Central Station, a well-heeled white 
       suburbanite reluctantly takes the only available seat and 
       eventually strikes up a conversation with the black man 
       sitting next to him. The white businessman’s verbal 
       barrage of insensitive questions and offensive remarks 
       incites a rage in his black neighbor that can barely be 
       suppressed. But the offended rider is E. R. 
       Braithwaite—former Royal Air Force pilot, Cambridge 
       graduate, schoolteacher, social worker, diplomat, and 
       bestselling author—and he has triumphed over prejudice and
       hatred throughout his truly extraordinary life and 
       multifaceted career. Against the backdrop of a short 
       railway commute, E. R. Braithwaite powerfully recounts a 
       personal history of remarkable accomplishments in the face
       of bigotry and hatred. Part memoir, part treatise on 
       racial intolerance and oppression, and the ignorance that 
       engenders them, Reluctant Neighbors is the unforgettable 
       story of one man’s continuous struggle against injustice 
       and his unwavering dedication to the pursuit of human 
       dignity
