520    Despite recent progress against racial inequalities, 
       American society continues to produce attitudes and 
       outcomes that reinforce the racial divide. In this book 
       the authors offer a fresh perspective on how to combat 
       racial division. They document the historical move from 
       white supremacy to institutional racism, then look at 
       modern efforts to overcome the racialized nature of our 
       society. The authors argue that both conservative and 
       progressive approaches have failed, as they continually 
       fall victim to forces of ethnocentrism and group interest.
       They then explore group interest and possible ways to 
       account for the perspectives of both majority and minority
       group members. They look to multiracial congregations, 
       multiracial families, the military, and sports teams, all 
       situations in which group interests have been overcome 
       before. In each context they find the development of a 
       core set of values that binds together different racial 
       groups, along with the flexibility to express racially 
       based cultural uniqueness that does not conflict with this
       critical core. This book offers what is at once a balanced
       approach towards dealing with racial alienation and a step
       forward in the debate about the steps necessary to 
       overcome present day racism.
