By examining the rise of the Nation of Islam, the Black Power Movement of the 1960s and 1970s, and the "Afrocentric era" of the 1980s through 1990s Austin shows how theories of race have shaped ideas about the meaning of "Blackness" within different time periods of the twentieth-century. Achieving Blackness provides both a fascinating history of Blackness and a theoretically challenging understanding of race and ethnicity. Austin traces how Blackness was defined by cultural ideas, social practices and shared identities as well as shaped in response to the social and historical conditions at different moments in American history. Analyzing black public opinion on black nationalism and its relationship with class, Austin challenges the commonly held assumption that black nationalism is a lower class phenomenon. In a refreshing and final move, he makes a compelling argument for rethinking contemporary theories of race away from the current fascination with physical difference, which he contends sweeps race back to its misconceived biological underpinnings. Achieving Blackness is a wonderful contribution to the sociology of race and African American Studies"--Publisher description. 606 $aSchwarze$3(DE-588)4116433-7$2gnd 606 $aNationalbewusstsein$3(DE-588)4041282-9$2gnd 606 $aMuslim$3(DE-588)4040921-1$2gnd 606 $aEthnische Beziehung$3(DE-588)4176973-9$2gnd 606 $aBlack nationalism$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00833733 606 $aBlack Muslims$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00833633 606 $aAfrocentrism$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00800053 606 $aAfrican Americans$xRace identity$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00799666 607 $aUSA$2gnd 607 $aUnited States$2fast 608 $aHistory. 610 $aAchieving. 610 $aBlackness. 610 $aStates. 610 $aUnited. 610 $ablack. 610 $acomplexities. 610 $acontext. 610 $aethnicity. 610 $aexamination. 610 $aimportant. 610 $amovements. 610 $anationalist. 610 $aoffers. 610 $arace. 615 07$aSchwarze. 615 07$aNationalbewusstsein. 615 07$aMuslim. 615 07$aEthnische Beziehung. 615 7$aBlack nationalism. 615 7$aBlack Muslims. 615 7$aAfrocentrism. 615 7$aAfrican Americans$xRace identity. 676 $a305.896/07300904 700 $aAustin$b Algernon$01509633 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787351103321 996 $aAchieving Blackness$93741670 997 $aUNINA
