Critical Race Theory 2Nd Ed by Richard Delgado

In this wide-ranging second edition, Richard Delgado and Jean Stefancic bring together the finest, most illustrative, and highly accessible articles in the fast-growing legal genre of Critical Race Theory. In challenging orthodoxy, questioning the premises of liberalism, and debating sacred wisdoms, Critical Race Theory scholars writing over the past few years have indelibly changed the way America looks at race. This edition contains treatment of all the topics covered in the first edition, along with provocative and probing questions for discussion and detailed suggestions for additional reading, all of which set this fine volume apart from the field. In addition, this edition contains five new substantive units -- crime, critical race practice, intergroup tensions and alliances, gay/lesbian issues, and transcending the black-white binary paradigm of race. In each of these areas, groundbreaking scholarship by the movement's founding figures as well as the brightest new stars provides immediate entre to current trends and developments in critical civil rights thought.
"This new collection of essays…is an important resource for those who are willing to invest time and energy in trying to understand the extraordinarily complicated ways race and racism function in this country, and the ways those dynamics spill over into many other areas"
The Diversity Factor

"...a rich trove of articles for readers who wish to delve into this important new field of inquiry."
Journal of American Ethnic History
