       Conclusion : racecraft and inequality. 
520    "Most people assume that racism grows from a perception of
       human difference: the fact of race gives rise to the 
       practice of racism. Sociologist Karen E. Fields and 
       historian Barbara J. Fields argue otherwise: the practice 
       of racism produces the illusion of race, through what they
       call "racecraft." And this phenomenon is intimately 
       entwined with other forms of inequality in American life. 
       So pervasive are the devices of racecraft in American 
       history, economic doctrine, politics, and everyday 
       thinking that the presence of racecraft itself goes 
       unnoticed. That the promised post-racial age has not 
       dawned, the authors argue, reflects the failure of 
       Americans to develop a legitimate language for thinking 
       about and discussing inequality. That failure should worry
       everyone who cares about democratic institutions." --
