The first edition of They and We appeared shortly after the March
on Washington, where Martin Luther King Jr. gave his memorable "I
Have a Dream" speech. It was published just before the Voting
Rights Act of 1965 was passed by Congress. The book, read by tens
of thousands, has been updated and expanded five times, each
edition maintaining the original intention of the author to provide
grounding in the sociological study of inter-group relations:
examining prejudice, discrimination, minority status and other core
concepts in straightforward, jargon-free prose, as well as tracking
social, economic, political and legal developments. The new, 7th
(50th anniversary) edition of They and We continues the tradition,
depicting recent demographic changes and persisting patterns (such
as the 'leapfrog' phenomenon, where, as in the past, many
African-Americans are left behind as newer groups move in, up, and
over). It also covers new developments, including the rise of
Islamophobia in the wake of 9/11. An entirely new chapter compares
perspectives in the United States with situations overseas,
particularly with regard to nativist and nationalist movements and
the rise of xenophobia in this society and in many others.
