Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book critiques the dominant white racial framing in mainstream race theory, highlighting its shortcomings in addressing systemic racism. It argues that traditional racial analyses are limited due to a lack of critical engagement with institutional and structural racism. In contrast, it introduces systemic racism theory, drawing on the insights of African Americans and other people of color who have historically challenged these biased perspectives. This approach seeks to illuminate the racially oppressive systems established over centuries and promote a more comprehensive understanding of racial issues.
