Sinopsis:

Críticas: ""This [book] explores its presence and how it's enacted, considering the economic, ideological, and political structure of American racism. The analysis offers many thoughtful points about how racism has permeated the system." --The Midwest Book Review." "[A] compelling book.." -"Booklist "Joe Feagin's important new work fills a much needed niche in antiracist theory and practice. "Racist America is a breath of fresh air in a context where much racial theory neglects contemporary social issues in favor of analyzing selected cultural dimensions of racism. In this compellingly argued, clearly written work, Feagin makes effective use of everyday examples to show how structures of racism affect our everyday lives. This book of racial theory not only demystifies systemic racism--it gives much-needed hope and clear direction for what we can do about it."--Patricia Hill Collins." ""Racist America: Roots, Current Realities, and Future Reparations, by Joe R. Feagin, is a bold, thoughtful exploration of the ubiquity of racism in contemporary life. Challenges our complacency about the trajectory of current racial relations an sketches important paths to an anti-racist future.." -Sunday Chieftain and Star, May 6, 2001 "In "Racist America Feagin tells us how Jefferson 'coerced' Sally Hemings into a sexual relationship and assures us that Jefferson's paternity of at least one of Hemings' children 'has now been confirmed by DNA testing.'." -Tribune, April 28, 2001
