<p>"<i>Racist America</i> is simply the most comprehensive, concise, and useful textbook on systemic racism in the United States.

Fenelon</b>, <em>Professor of Sociology and Director of Center for Indigenous Peoples Studies, California State University, San Bernardino</em></p><p>"<i>Racist America </i>forces readers to take a hard look at the world we live in.

Poulson</b>, <em>Professor of Sociology, James Madison University</em></p><p>"This new edition of <i>Racist America</i> is a comprehensive analysis of the enduring racism embedded in the development of the United States.

Levine</b>, <em>Professor of Sociology, Colgate University</em></p>

The fifth edition of Racist America is thoroughly revised and updated, focusing on systemic racism and antiracism issues, especially those arising since the fourth edition (2019). Expanding the discussion on racialized intersectionality, as well as on the white racial frame, elite-white-male dominance system, and antiracist action, this book details how these racism realities continue to impact black, Latino, Asian, Indigenous, and white Americans. The book explains how and why the Black Lives Matter movement and other antiracist protests have erupted; how and why Latino, Asian, and Indigenous Americans have responded to expanding racist discrimination; and how and why a diverse array of Americans has demanded major societal responses to dismantle entrenched white racism.
