Baker explores what racial categories mean to the American public and how these meanings are reinforced by anthropology, popular culture, and the law. Focusing on the period between two landmark Supreme Court decisions-Plessy v. Ferguson (the so-called "separate but equal" doctrine established in 1896) and Brown v. Board of Education (the public school desegregation decision of 1954)-Baker shows how racial categories change over time. Baker paints a vivid picture of the relationships between specific African American and white scholars, who orchestrated a paradigm shift within the social sciences from ideas based on Social Darwinism to those based on cultural relativism. He demonstrates that the greatest impact on the way the law codifies racial differences has been made by organizations such as the NAACP, which skillfully appropriated the new social science to exploit the politics of the Cold War. 606 $aRacism in anthropology$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aAnthropology$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aRacism in popular culture$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aAfrican Americans$xPublic opinion 606 $aPublic opinion$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xRace relations 615 0$aRacism in anthropology$xHistory. 615 0$aAnthropology$xHistory. 615 0$aRacism in popular culture$xHistory. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xPublic opinion. 615 0$aPublic opinion 676 $a305.8 700 $aBaker$b Lee D.$f1966-$0957068 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828722803321 996 $aFrom savage to Negro$94115540 997 $aUNINA
