Washington showed no sign of reactivating its China policy. In fact, the Truman Administration never had a determined policy aimed at stopping communism in China. Its loudest alibi has been that Chiang Kai-shek was a liability.

But he keeps clandestine contact with his Negro colleagues, names his son (Richard Hylton) after a famous Negro doctor. Out of these contacts emerge some fresh insight into Negro viewpoints, and into the intricate network of etiquette and anguish separating those who can "pass" from those who cannot...
