How will efforts to eradicate racism, sexism, and xenophobia be affected by the measures our government takes in the name of protecting its citizens? Richard Delgado, one of the founding figures in the Critical Race Theory movement, addresses these problems with his latest book in the award-winning Rodrigo Chronicles. Employing the narrative device he and other Critical Race theorists made famous, Delgado assembles a cast of characters to discuss such urgent and timely topics as race, terrorism, hate speech, interracial relationships, freedom of speech, and new theories on civil rights stemming from the most recent war.In the course of this new narrative, Delgado provides analytical breakthroughs, offering new civil rights theories, new approaches to interracial romance and solidarity, and a fresh analysis of how whiteness and white privilege figure into the debate on affirmative action. The characters also discuss the black/white binary paradigm of race and show why it persists even at a time when the country's population is rapidly diversifying.RacismUnited StatesRace discriminationUnited StatesMinoritiesLegal status, laws, etcUnited StatesMinoritiesCivil rightsUnited StatesEmigration and immigration lawUnited StatesImmigrantsCivil rightsUnited StatesIntellectualsFictionUnited StatesRace relationsUnited StatesPolitics and government2001-2009United StatesSocial conditions1980-Electronic books.RacismRace discriminationMinoritiesLegal status, laws, etc.MinoritiesCivil rightsEmigration and immigration lawImmigrantsCivil rightsIntellectuals305.8/00973/090511Delgado Richard1032797Hochschild Jennifer1040942MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450170903321Justice at war2482657UNINA02874nam 2200577 a 450 991078142410332120230829001557.01-60086-835-51-60086-834-7(CKB)2550000000073163(EBL)3111645(SSID)ssj0000727202(PQKBManifestationID)11394906(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000727202(PQKBWorkID)10684381(PQKB)10860476(MiAaPQ)EBC3111645(Au-PeEL)EBL3111645(CaPaEBR)ebr10516750(OCoLC)922979081(EXLCZ)99255000000007316320060808d2006 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrSpace exploration and astronaut safety[electronic resource] /by Joseph N.
