In this volume, some of the country's most celebrated and original thinkers on race, historians, sociologists, writers, scholars, and cultural critics, reexamine the familiar framework of the civil rights movement with an eye to redirecting our understanding of the politics of race. Through provocative and insightful essays, this work challenges contemporary images of black families, offers a contentious critique of the relevance of presidential politics, transforms ideas about real and perceived political power, defies commonly accepted notions of "blackness," and generally attempts to sketch the new boundaries of debates over race in America. Bringing a wealth of novel ideas and fresh perspectives to the public discourse, it represents a major effort to address both persistent inequalities and the changing landscape of race in the new century. 651 0 United States |xRace relations. |=^A6417 650 0 Civil rights movements |zUnited States |xHistory. |=^A964524 650 0 African Americans |xCivil rights. |=^A2003 650 0 African Americans |xPolitics and government. |=^A113945 700 1 Mack, Kenneth Walter, |d1964- |=^A1178389 700 1 Charles, Guy-Uriel E., |d1970- |=^A1176156 949 |i30372013924664 |ojjlm 960 |o1 |s21.95 |tJoyner48 |uJHIS |zUSD 596 1 998 3419238
