Wouldn't be the first time.

For a good, entertaining, and informative read, Poland by James Michener

JM was fantastic at portraying generally denegrated ethnic populations in a more just light.

In “The Covenant” he did not endeavor to excuse apartheid but he certainly made it more understandable.
