Focusing on Native Americans, African Americans, Asian Americans, and Latino Americans, it explores how racial subordination developed in the region, how it has been resisted and opposed, and how it has been sustained through independence, the abolition of slavery, the civil rights movement, and subsequent reforms. The text also considers the position of European immigrants to the US, interrogates relevant moral issues, and identifies persistent problems of public policy, arguing that all four centuries of racial subordination are relevant to understanding contemporary America and some of its most urgent issues. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of American history, the history of race and ethnicity, and other related courses in the humanities and social sciences. 606 $aSocial history 607 $aUnited States$xRace relations$xHistory 607 $aUnited States$xEthnic relations$xHistory 615 0$aSocial history. 676 $a306.09 700 $aLyons$b David$f1935-$0304303 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818520103321 996 $aThe color line$94026439 997 $aUNINA
