Why do black families own less than white families? Why does school
segregation persist decades after Brown v. Board of Education? Why
is it harder for black adults to vote than for white adults? Will
addressing economic inequality solve racial and gender inequality
as well? This book answers all of these questions and more by
revealing the hidden rules of race that create barriers to
inclusion today. While many Americans are familiar with the
histories of slavery and Jim Crow, we often don't understand how
the rules of those eras undergird today's economy, reproducing the
same racial inequities 150 years after the end of slavery and 50
years after the banning of Jim Crow segregation laws. This book
shows how the fight for racial equity has been one of progress and
retrenchment, a constant push and pull for inclusion over
exclusion. By understanding how our economic and racial rules work
together, we can write better rules to finally address inequality
in America.
