A New York Times Notable Book of the Year
What do hurricane Katrina victims, millionaire rappers buying vintage champagne, and Ivy League professors waiting for taxis have in common? All have claimed to be victims of racism. But these days almost no one openly defends bigoted motives, so either a lot of people are lying about their true beliefs, or a lot of people are jumping to unwarranted conclusions--or just playing the race card. Daring, entertaining, and incisive, The Race Card brings sophisticated legal analysis, eye-popping anecdotes, and plain old common sense to this heated topic.Languages:EnglishPublisher:St. Martins Press-3PLISBN-13:9780312428266ISBN-10:031242826XUPC:9780312428266Book Category:Social ScienceBook Subcategory:Discrimination (incl.
