Drawing on content from yearbooks published by prominent colleges
in Virginia, this book explores changes in race relations that have
occurred at universities in the United States since the late 19th
century. It juxtaposes the content published in predominantly White
university yearbooks to that published by Howard University, a
historically Black college. The study is a work of visual
sociology, with photographs, line drawings and historical prints
that provide a visual account of the institutional racism that
existed at these colleges over time. It employs Bonilla-Silva's
concept of structural racism to shed light on how race ordered all
aspects of social life on campuses from the period of post-Civil
War Reconstruction to the present. It examines the lives of the
Black men and women who worked at these schools and the racial
attitudes of the White men and women who attended them. As such,
Racism on Campus will appeal to scholars of sociology, history and
anthropology with interests in race, racism and visual methods.
