WilsonBoulder, Colorado :Lynne Rienner Publishers, Inc.,2015.©20151 online resource (312 p.)Description based upon print version of record.1-62637-189-X Includes bibliographical references and index.What is metaracism? -- The structure of metaracism -- The culture of metaracism -- Politics, the state, and the maintenance of racial oppression -- The growth of inequality -- The assault on social welfare and education policies -- The incarceration crisis -- Minority vote suppression -- Metaracism at a crossroads.The black/white gaps in income, education, and wealth are expanding. Prisons are crowded with black men. There is an increasing concentration of urban poverty. While individuals and communities reject biological determinism and find bigotry offensive, structural inequalities remain. Why? Addressing this fundamental question, Carter Wilson focuses on the elusive dynamics of contemporary racism. Wilson documents the emergence of metaracism, a deeply embedded bias fueled by economic insecurity, entrenched (yet no longer publicly accepted) stereotypes, and shifts in public policy. He illustrates his argument with discussions of a broad range of policy issues. His provocative analysis offers new insights on both the roots of racism and its persistence today.Race discriminationUnited StatesHistory21st centuryRight and left (Political science)United States21st centuryRacismUnited States21st centuryRace discriminationHistoryRight and left (Political science)Racism305.900973Wilson Carter A.1479500MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797737503321Metaracism3695653UNINA
