But today the situation has grown even more dire. From the murders of black youth by the police, to the dismantling of the Voting Rights Act, to the disaster visited upon poor and middle-class black families by the Great Recession, it is clear that black America faces an emergency--at the very moment the election ofthe first black president has prompted many to believe we've solved America's race problem. Democracy in Black is Eddie S. Glaude Jr.'s impassioned response. Part manifesto, part history, part memoir, it argues that we live in a country founded on a "value gap"--with white lives valued more than others--that still distorts our politics today. Whether discussing why all Americans have racial habits that reinforce inequality, why black politics based on the civil-rights era have reached a dead end, or whyonly remaking democracy from the ground up can bring real change, Glaude crystallizes the untenable position of black America--and offers thoughts on a better way forward. Forceful in ideas and unsettling in its candor, Democracy In Black is a landmark book on race in America, one that promises to spark wide discussion as we move toward the end of our first black presidency"-- $c Provided by publisher. 520 $a "A polemic on the state of black America that argues that we don't yet live in a post-racial society"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Social conditions $y 21st century. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Economic conditions $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Racism $z United States $x History $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Race discrimination $z United States $x History $y 21st century. 651 0 $a United States $x History $x History $y 21st century. 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / African American Studies. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Discrimination & Race Relations. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY / United States / 21st Century. $2 bisacsh 856 42 $3 Cover image $u 9780804137416.jpg 941 $a 27 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611015550.0 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417013815.0 952 $l GLAX641 $d 20231201010609.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718092527.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629013100.0 952 $l HYAX325 $d 20221212143349.0 $m HYAX325 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722051959.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20201208011538.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20200701010354.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200528062509.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204082243.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110064156.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210022928.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20190118011120.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181107050623.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006092812.0 952 $l HWAX074 $d 20170620010943.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20170616011258.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418112523.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826044126.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20160524014525.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20160430010215.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20160412010322.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20160323010706.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20160216010404.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20160202094531.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20160127053847.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EC73FB00B8FE11E5951DB6E5DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
