Racial Subjects: Writing on Race in America


Overview

Arguing that racism is best understood as exclusionary relations of power, David Theo Goldberg traces the history of changing racial categories over 200 years of US census-taking. He uses this framework to discuss the new black public intellectuals; race and the law in the wake of the O.J. Simpson verdict; relations between Blacks and Jews; and affirmative action.
