Du Bois -- 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." -- Publisher's description 650 0 Racism|zUnited States|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008110369 650 0 Racism in anthropology|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh96008541|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n78095330-781|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Physical anthropology|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85101512|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n78095330-781|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 7 Racism.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1086616 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Racism in anthropology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1086650 650 7 Physical anthropology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1062357 650 7 Racism.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0002038 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 Fields, Barbara Jeanne.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n85048412 856 42 |3Contributor biographical information|uhttp:// catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1312/2012454634- b.html 856 42 |3Publisher description|uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/ enhancements/fy1312/2012454634-d.html 901 MARCIVE 20231220 948 |d20160930|clti|tlti-aex 994 C0|bRID
