Sounds like it will be a great proofread!

"To me, music that breaks your heart is the music that stays with you
forever. It's one thing to be melancholy and one thing to be sophisticated,
but when you get the two of them together in a way people can relate to,
then I think you're on to something. You want the sophistication to lie in
the purity of the sound, the beauty of the arrangements, and the quality of
the performances."-Trumpeter Chris Botti

Hi all,
I've just submitted "Between Barack and a Hard Place: Racism and White
Denial in the Age of Obama" by Tim Wise.
Read through; errors corrected; headers stripped; section titles/page
numbers present/protected; text size and style formatted.
160 pages.
Description:
Longstanding anti-racism activist Wise presents two essays exploring
issues
of race in America in the context of the election of the first person of
color, Barack Obama, to the presidency of the United States. In the first
essay he argues that, election night proclamations about the end of racism
notwithstanding, systemic racial discrimination and profound inequality of
opportunity continue to exist in the United States. Furthermore, the
election of Obama could signify the rise of a new kind of racism in which
individual successes by people of color are celebrated and used to support
negative views towards the masses of people of color. However, he argues
in
the second essay, the energies unleashed by the Obama election can still
be
harnessed and turned towards productive antiracism and social justice
work.
