add to cart   close window

For the past two years the author have been suggesting that racism is a permanent condition in the U.S. The author have argued that American racism is not, as Gunnar Myrdal concluded in his massive book "An American Dilemma," an anomaly on the democratic landscape, a holdover from slavery that the U.S. both wants to cure and is capable of curing. Rather, the author agrees with Jennifer Hochschild's book "The New American Dilemma" that racism is a critically important stabilizing factor that enables whites to bond across a wide socioeconomic chasm.
