In this enlightening and insightful monograph, John B. Hatch
analyzes various public discourses that have attempted to address
the racialized legacy of slavery, from West Africa to the United
States, and in doing so, proposes a rhetorical theory of
reconciliation. Recognizing the impact both of religious traditions
and modern social values on the dialogue of reconciliation, Hatch
examines these influences in tandem with contemporary critical race
theory. Hatch explores the social-psychological and ethical
challenges of racial reconciliation in light of work by Mark
McPhail, Kenneth Burke, Paul Ricoeur, and others. He then develops
his own framework for understanding reconciliation_both as the
recovery of a coherent ethical grammar and as a process of
rhetorical interaction and hermeneutic reorientation through
apology, forgiveness, reparations, symbolic healing, and related
genres of reparative action. What emerges from this work is a
profound vision for the prospects of meaningful redress and
reconciliation in American race relations.
