Author of The Origins of the Civil Rights Movement: Black Communities Organizing for Change
"This excellent collection brings together well-known, established authors whose theories have influenced contemporary research on race with those emerging scholars whose findings will shape future research and policy. It lays the groundwork for revisiting social psychological theories in the context of institutional and interactional approaches to the study of race, gender and social status. These readings help explain the persistence of obstacles facing old and new minorities in the United States as well as highlighting the opportunities for and promise of overcoming them."

Author of Memphis and the Paradox of Place: Globalization in the American South
Race and Ethnic Relations in the Twenty-First Century examines the major theoretical and empirical approaches regarding race and ethnicity. Its goal is to continue to place race and ethnic relations in a contemporary, intersectional, and cross-comparative context and progress the discipline to include groups past the Black/White dichotomy. Using various sociological theories, social psychological theories, and subcultural approaches, this book gives students a sociohistorical, theoretical, and institutional frame with which to view race and ethnic relations in the twenty-first century.
