The Racialization of America

In the most comprehensive analysis of race, class, and ethnicity yet attempted, Yehudi Webster challenges the whole notion of racial classification put forward by both government and academics. The Racialization of America 's central argument is that to first classify citizens as "blacks" and "whites" and then describe their relations based on this division violates basic logic and creates an inevitably incoherent and self-defeating system of "race relations." It is time, at last, to move toward a more sophisticated view of human interaction.
