| Sommario/riassunto: | Loury describes a cycle of tainted social information that has resulted in a self-replicating pattern of racial stereotypes that rationalize and sustain discrimination. His analysis shows how restrictions placed on black development by stereotypical and stigmatizing thinking deny a segment of the population the possibility of self-actualization. |
