Beyond Black & White: Rethinking Race
A generation removed from the civil rights movement, the achievement of racial equality and social justice for African Americans seems more remote than ever.

At the same time, affirmative action, Black Studies programs and other gains of the civil rights era are under attack from the renascent right.
