The history of the American twentieth century is largely one of
race relations. As the twentieth century unfolded, racial tensions
between major racial and ethnic groups often exploded. From the
backlash against Eastern and Southern European immigration in the
early part of the century to the Civil Rights movement and race
riots of the 1960s to the backlash against Latino immigration at
the century's end, understanding race relations is central to
meeting curricular U.S. history standards. The five-volume Race
Relations in the United States in the Twentieth Century set
incomparably encapsulates the explosive century, with a desirable
decade-by-decade overall organization especially tailored for
student assignments. The set provides comprehensive reference
coverage of the key events, influential voices, race relations by
group, legislation, media influences, cultural output, and theories
of inter-group interactions that have been evident in the last
century and related to race. Each volume, written by an historian,
covers two decades. The set format includes this coverage per
decade: Timeline, Overview, Key Events, Voices of the Decade, Race
Relations by Group, Law and Government, Media and Mass
Communications, Cultural Scene, Influential Theories and Views of
Race Relations, Resource Guide, allowing comparison of topics
through the century. The bulk of the coverage is topical essays,
written in a clear, encyclopedic style. Each volume contains a
selected bibliography and index. Historical photos complement the
text. Volumes include: BLRace Relations in the United States,
