Description:

By definitively establishing that racism has broad implications for how the entire field of philosophy is practiced -- and by whom -- this powerful and convincing book puts all members of the discipline on notice that racism concems them. It simultaneously demonstrates to race theorists the significance of philosophy for their work.
