Zusammenfassung:"In this courageous new book, Jackson draws on examples from current events as well as everyday interactions to demonstrate the culture of race-based paranoia and its profound effects on the lives of all Americans. He explains how it is cultivated, transferred, and reinforced, and how it complicates the goal of racial equality in America. In addition, he explores the ways we can counteract racial paranoia in the twenty-first century by taking its pessimisms seriously and admitting the duplicities that sometimes define inter-racial dialogues. Passionate and deeply-informed, 'Racial Paranoia' promises to be a landmark study of race relations in America." -- inside cover.
