Written in accessible, straightforward language, the book discusses and critically analyzes cutting-edge scholarship in the field.… Organized into topics and concepts rather than discrete racial groups, the text addresses: - How and when the idea of race was created and developed - How structural racism has worked historically to reproduce inequality - How we have a society rampant with racial inequality though most people do not consider themselves to be racist - How race, class, and gender work together to create inequality and identities - How immigration policy in the United States has been racialized - How racial justice could be imagined and realized Centrally focused on racial dynamics, Race and Racisms, Third Edition, incorporates an intersectional perspective, discussing the intersections of racism, patriarchy, and capitalism.
