For HS kids, I like 'Look out whitey, black power's gon' get your mama'. No kidding, it's a good book. My sis read it in AP English lit. A good balance would be 'Up from slavery'.

When I was in high school I had a "hip" English teacher who wanted to get through all of the books targeted for the banned list before they hit it. One of them was Eldridge Cleaver's "Soul on Ice." I remember reading aloud from it and forgetting to omit the particular passage that she was sure I would recognize as offensive.
