The authors of Racial Theories in Context discuss the relationship of racial theories to material contexts of racial oppression and to democratic struggles for freedom and equality:
- First and foremost in this discussion is the vast system of racial slavery instituted throughout the Atlantic world and the international movement that sought its abolition.
- Continuing campaigns to redress racial divisions in health, wealth, housing, employment, and education are also examined.
- There is a focus on the specificity of racial formation in the United States and the centrality of anti-black racism.
- The book also looks comparatively at other regions of racial inequality and the construction of a global racial hierarchy since the 15th century CE.
Racial Theories in Context is part of a two book series specifically developed for African American studies programs. The other book in this series is:
A Historical Perspective of African Americans, edited by Bridget R. Cooks
