Willie's Book Tour for Basic Brown: My Life and Our Times

Do you have your copy yet? One noteworthy review of Basic Brown notes the following:

He makes an unusual attack on his successor as mayor of San Francisco, Gavin Newsom, all but accusing him of racism in appointments. "When I was mayor of San Francisco I made a point to appoint as many qualified blacks as I could to city posts. Now when I walk around city hall, I see almost no black faces. When I left, blacks were ousted along with me."

What do you think of that? Other reviews are here and here.

If you'd prefer, there's always the detailed Willie Brown biography from 1996 as an option. Read the whole thing online, if you want.
