Description
Throughout this book, the articles reveal the imprecision of the current understanding of the issues of race and racism. Impacts of Racism on White Americans is essential reading for sociologists, psychologists, and all those seeking insights into institutional and societal racism.
'The volume offers a clear articulation of a number of historical, spatial, and international perspectives on race relations. It incorporates a variety of levels of analysis -- from the individual to the organizational to the international -- and it utilizes a range of methodologies in addressing a question that has a relative dearth of research literature.' -- International Social Science Review, Spring 1983
