In a refreshing new introduction to the sociology of race, \u003ci\u003eRecognizing Race and Ethnicity\u003c\/i\u003e encourages students to think differently by challenging the notion that we are, or should even aspire to be, color-blind.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this text, Kathleen Fitzgerald considers how the continuing significance of race manifests in both significant and obscure ways by looking across all racial\/ethnic groups within the socio-historical context of institutions and arenas, rather than discussing each group by group. Incorporating recent research and contemporary theoretical perspectives, she guides students to examine racial ideologies and identities as well as structural racism; at the same time, she covers topics like popular culture, sports, and interracial relationships that will keep students engaged. \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eRecognizing Race and Ethnicity\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e provides unparalled coverage of white privilege while remaining careful to not treat \"white\" as the norm against which all other groups are defined.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eRecognizing Race and Ethnicity\u003c\/i\u003e makes it clear that, in a time when race and racism are constantly evolving in response to varied social contexts, societal demands, and political climates, we all must learn to recognize race if we are to get beyond it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Avalon Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47030621503728,"sku":"9780813350264","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780813350264_p0.jpg?v=1763746061","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780813350264","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
