"A provocative and powerful collection of eclectic writings on the
central moral issue of our times". -- Jonathan Kozol, author of
Amazing Grace: The Lives of Children and the Conscience of a Nation
"Double Exposure delivers a double dose of smart writing,
controlled anger, and devasting common sense". -- Barbara
Ehrenreich, author of Worst Years of Our Lives: Irreverent Notes
from a Decade of Greed
This book provides the most up-to-date and comprehensive review
of the major topics surrounding our country s most troublesome and
seemingly intractable social problem: the intersection of race and
poverty.
The sixty-three contributions -- by some of the nation's leading
thinkers and activists (Nathan Glazer, Roger Wilkins, Senator Bill
Bradley, Brent Staples, Congresswoman Maxine Waters, Manning
Marable, Howard Winant, Benjamin DeMott, Max Frankel, Herbert Gans,
Henry Hampton, Julian Bond, and many others), representing a
variety of disciplines and backgrounds -- are organized under seven
key topics: affirmative action; the "permanence of racism" thesis;
the use and utility of racial and ethnic categories;
multiculturalism; immigration; the "underclass" debate; and
democracy/equality.
