Race : a history beyond black and white Cover Image Book

Race : a history beyond black and white / Marc Aronson.

Aronson, Marc. (Author).

Summary:

Race. You know it at a glance: he's black; she's white. They're Asian; we're Latino. Racism. I'm better; she's worse. Those people do those kinds of things. We all know it's wrong to make these judgments, but they come faster than thought. Why? Where did those feelings come from? Why are they so powerful?
