Hailed by Publishers Weekly for its "forceful" and "bracing
opinions on race and politics", Class Notes is critic Adolph Reed,
Jr.'s latest blast of clear thinking on matters of race, class, and
other American dilemmas. The book begins with a consideration of
the theoretical and practical strategies of the U.S. left over the
last three decades: Reed argues against the solipsistic approaches
of cultural or identity politics, and in favor of class-based
political interpretation and action.
Class Notes moves on to tackle race relations, ethnic studies,
family values, welfare reform, the so-called underclass, and black
public intellectuals in essays called "head-spinning" and
"brilliantly executed" by David Levering Lewis.
Adolph Reed, Jr. has earned a national reputation for his
controversial evaluations of American politics. These essays
illustrate why people like Katha Pollitt consider Reed "the
smartest person of any race, class, or gender writing on race,
class, and gender".
