This book eloquently chronicles the whole, bitter history of racism, connecting all these events together in an engaging progression of racist and antiracist thought and actions over the years. It expertly exposes the shortcomings of various attacks on racism and shows the ways in which racist power has been able to continue largely uninterrupted for such a long time.
