This brief paperback text provides an analysis of racism, not race relations. It uses the concept of "internal colonialism," a prominent conflict theory throughout to emphasize the oppressive nature of American racism. Using a powerful and direct writing style, the book uses two decisive levels of analysis: the broad macro-level analysis of forces producing racism and the micro-level focus on case-study material demonstrating the intimate workings of racist reality. Beginning with a historical background on America's main racial minorities, it then examines the effects of racism on each group in areas of politics, criminal justice, violence, work, education, family, and mass media., ISBN13: 9780060417208 ISBN10: 006041720X Material Type: paperback
