The national racial reckoning that began in 2020 promised to radically restructure American society from the bottom up. But five years on, it has mainly served to strengthen the ruling class and deliver the rich an opportunity to rehabilitate a profoundly unequal economic order precisely at a moment when the stability of the system and the public's trust in it are drastically deteriorating.
Corporations have used antiracism to consolidate their political power and evade government regulation. Employers have surveilled and undermined workers through counterproductive diversity, equity, and inclusion trainings. Affluent professionals and Democratic politicians have exacerbated a stark class divide by pushing half-baked "racial equity" policies that come at the expense of the majority of working people. And the right has reacted to these developments by stoking a toxic culture war against "wokeness" that serves only as a distraction from the increasing economic hardship faced by Americans of all races.
Selling Social Justice investigates the rise and spread of contemporary antiracist ideology and shows how the rich came to embrace this particular form of justice. In this provocative and thoroughly researched account, Jennifer C. Pan explores why, in a twenty-first-century economy of increasing scarcity, antiracism is the wrong frame for understanding and fighting inequality.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Its not simply that big business has cynically co-opted an authentic grassroots uprising, but that an unwitting alliance exists between the main line of the racial justice movement and capitalism. In other words, capitalism has found a way to be antiracist without doing a thing to mitigate inequality, racial or otherwise.87 companies on the S&P 100 released statements on racial justice; 79 pledged money to racial justice-related causes; 66 pledged to hire more diverse candidates; and 50 pledged to diversify their C-suites and boards. High-end gallerists open showrooms with all black staff and uptown Manhattan private schools have issued seemingly radical anti-racist manifestos. Budgets for DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) have ballooned. For all that commitment and spending, change has been fleeting for those at the bottom.Using compelling journalistic prose combined with deep political analysis, Selling Social Justice investigates the rise and spread of contemporary racial justice ideology. In this critique from the left, Pan traces the evolution of seemingly radical ideas about race as they are integrated into the logic and policy of corporate America. And it is precisely the extent to which demands are adjusted to suit elite interests that they undermine the possibility of building a coalition capable of advancing distributive justice and greater equality.
