There has been
no shortage of reviews over the years. Here is a little selection of those
that could be optically scanned.
Reviews of Jacob Holdt's museum exhibitions ....and life
Reviews from his exhibitions in mostly Europe in recent years
Reviews
of the book
As the book has never been officially published in America (my intention
was to give the homeless and street people a chance to sell it), there
have been very few reviews in the media. But many universities use the
book as a textbook and often send copies of the students' writings back
to Jacob Holdt.

reactions to the slide show
In many colleges students have been writing papers in classes about the
show and hundreds have sent letters to Jacob Holdt. They often talk openly
about the pain the show gave them as a result of their racist upbringing.
