Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

In Race Rules, Michael Eric Dyson reveals the pernicious influence of racial thinking across the broad canvas of American social and cultural life, from the disjunction between how blacks and whites view the world, to the way perceptions of black masculinity thwart black leadership, to the politics of nostalgia that keeps us looking to an imaginary past rather than creating a positive future. Through painful examples drawn from within the black community?sexual conflict in the black church, the myth of the ?head Negro, relations between men and women?Dyson depicts our ongoing failure to break free from the rules of race.
