| Abstract | "The Origins of Critical Race Theory weaves together the many sources of critical race theory, recounting the origin story this academic movement. In addition to introducing readers to the tenets and key insights of critical race theory, Martinez and Smith explore the lives and intellectual influences of the movement's founders, shedding light on how the many components of critical race theory eventually formed into a movement. Through archival research and interviews with scholars like Derrick Bell, Richard Delgado, and Jean Stefancic, the authors provide the personal side of critical race theory"-- Adapted from the publisher's description. |
