| Abstract | Twenty million Americans participated in racial justice demonstrations in 2020. But how can we begin to undo segregation's damage? The Rothsteins offer programs that activists and their supporters can undertake in their communities to address historical inequities. They show how community groups can press firms that imposed segregation to take responsibility for reversing the harm, creating victories that may help remedy America's unconstitutional past. -- adapted from jacket |
