Racist America

The fifth edition of Racist America is thoroughly revised and updated, focusing on systemic racism and antiracism issues, especially those arising since the fourth edition (2019). Expanding the discussion on racialized intersectionality, as well as on the white racial frame, elite-white-male dominance system, and antiracist action, this book details how these racism realities continue to impact Black, Latino, Asian, Indigenous, and white Americans. The book explains how and why the Black Lives Matter movement and other antiracist protests have erupted; how and why Black, Latino, Asian, and Indigenous Americans have responded to expanding racist discrimination; and how and why a diverse array of Americans has demanded major societal responses to dismantle entrenched white racism.
