American Mixed Race cover

This exciting multidisciplinary collection brings together twenty-two original essays by scholars on the cutting edge of racial theory, who address both the American concept of race and the specific problems experienced by those who do not fit neatly into the boxes society requires them to check.

It may be the most important work yet in a movement that could change all our racial discourse in the classrooms, on suburban streets and in the alleys of our cities, in our political debates, and in our innermost understanding of who we are. -- Jorge Garcia, Rutgers University
A thought-provoking collection that addresses the concerns of a growing social movement. * Ethics: An International Journal of Social, Political, and Legal Philosophy *
These essays provide interesting and evocative interpretations and analyses of the history of American understandings of race. * Humanity & Society *
A valuable aid for anyone doing serious research on the meanings of race in the American context, and . . . a valuable educational resource for students of the subject as well. -- Lewis R. Gordon, Professor of Philosophy and Africana Studies, University of Connecticut
