This book examines the ongoing struggle for social justice by and
for African Americans. Examining the persistent rolling back of
civil and voting rights for this population and other minorities
since the end of Reconstruction, the author discusses the continued
colonization of African Americans and the rise of white nationalism
before considering what can be done to create a democratic version
of Americanism. With discussions on the possibilities that exist
for eliminating health disparities, increasing income and reducing
wealth inequality, enhancing the urban environment and housing
stability, reforming criminal justice, and reconsidering the case
for reparations for the descendants of slaves, the author considers
whether white nationalism is a threat to Democratic Americanism and
if the declining fortunes of working class Americans can be
reversed by means of a "Marshall Plan" for the United States. A
study of the sustained racial injustices of American society over
the last century and a half and their possible remedies, A Nation
Apart will appeal to all those with interests in race and ethnicity
and questions of social justice.
