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. 606 $aRacism$zUnited States 606 $aRace discrimination$zUnited States 606 $aMinorities$xLegal status, laws, etc$zUnited States 606 $aMinorities$xCivil rights$zUnited States 606 $aEmigration and immigration law$zUnited States 606 $aImmigrants$xCivil rights$zUnited States 606 $aIntellectuals$vFiction 607 $aUnited States$xRace relations 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y2001-2009 607 $aUnited States$xSocial conditions$y1980-2020 615 0$aRacism 615 0$aRace discrimination 615 0$aMinorities$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aMinorities$xCivil rights 615 0$aEmigration and immigration law 615 0$aImmigrants$xCivil rights 615 0$aIntellectuals 676 $a305.8/00973/090511 700 $aDelgado$b Richard$01718569 701 $aHochschild$b Jennifer$01704503 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828732703321 996 $aJustice at war$94115634 997 $aUNINA
