Valid point ,but I feel like that doesn't really apply to majority of the population. Non-white people were seen as subhuman purely based on the colour of their skin, so for them it was literally impossible to have their experiences documented outside of any racial undertones.

Americans are pretty inward thinking about the world, we are told at school we are the greatest and most free country on earth and no one is greater than us. I had teachers tell us how bad people have it overseas. One geography teacher about 1972 said in South Africa if you were anti-apartied you'd be made to stand on a box til you collapsed and then your ankles were broken. Yes she taught us that.
