Summary

Although Americans have traditionally treated race relations as a matter of black and white, race in this country is much more complex. "Beyond Black and White brings new perspectives to the oversimplification of racial categories and new insight into the complexity of social relationships in these two important regions. All those interested in race and public policy as well as social activism directed toward racial, ethnic, and gender issues will find in these thought-provoking analyses a doorway to deeper understanding.
