Summary "Racism in American Public Life: A Call to Action is part of The Malcolm Lester Phi Beta Kappa Lectures on Liberal Arts and Public Life. Cole examines the influence of race and racism on education, particularly the liberal arts, and the wider implication for American society specifically looking at three groups: first, further marginalized groups within Black communities, such as poor and/or queer people; secondly, institutions of higher education in leading conversations on race and racism; and thirdly, how racist forces impact higher education making it a site for transformation and action"-- Provided by publisher.
