Anti-racist movements have continued to grow worldwide after the death of George Floyd in 2020. Following the BLM protests, many promises were made to deal with the impact of structural discrimination. While this led to more talk than action, there has also been meaningful change, some of which has gone under the radar. The US media focused primarily on the backlash that resulted in book bans and laws against having DEI offices in universities.

In contrast, this book, a follow-up to Terri E. Givens's bestselling book Radical Empathy: Finding a Path to Bridging Racial Divides, highlights the promises that were delivered. It focuses on hope and taking action and creating a positive environment including the use of the radical empathy approach to empower ongoing change.

White moderates have been a hidden obstacle to black-white equality in the United States for over two centuries. This book offers the first philosophical critique of their role in impeding racial progress and perpetuating black-white inequality.

Taking his cue from Martin Luther King Jr.'s Letter from Birmingham Jail, the author defines white moderates as those who embrace the need for progress while opposing immediate action due to fears of social disorder. By acting on these commitments, they have contributed to the persistence of both moral and material inequality. The goal of this book is to diagnose and critique the white moderates' philosophical position. It argues that white moderates have crafted unreasonable compromises in response to legitimate calls for reform. In doing so, they support social closure: practices of hoarding and exploitation that sustain black-white inequality. The book then turns to the moderates' own case for incrementalism, reconstructing it as a four-premise argument: radical change provokes catastrophic violence, is otherwise unpredictable, cannot secure durable consensus, whereas incremental gains justify their short-term costs. The books alleges this case is mistaken on both historical and moral grounds. It rests on an unduly narrow conception of radicalism; a more accurate conception reveals that truth-telling, institution-building, and norm-contestation have all won lasting progress. Moderates reason from a false baseline that ignores the ongoing violence of an unjust status quo; they treat delay as neutral when it actively entrenches closure; they overstate the durability of their own brittle compromises; and they wrongly require individuals to forfeit their lifetime to a deferred collective good. Thus, amid deep-seated social closure, moderation is ineffective and not morally compelling. In these respects, white moderates are a significant impediment to equality.

The White Moderate: Why Racial Equality Demands Radicalism will appeal to researchers and students working in ethics, social and political philosophy, philosophy of race, critical race theory, and African American politics.

Uses the life of a notorious early twentieth century Black evangelist to shed light on a transformative era for Black religious leadership and its perceived authority

Power in the Pews explores one man's meteoric rise to religious fame to illuminate how Black ministers' power in urban Black life came to be contested in early 20th century America. Before the massive popularity of figures like Father Divine and "Sweet Daddy" Grace, traveling evangelist George Wilson Becton was the first of the charismatic African American religious leaders to enthrall the Black masses in cities across the nation.

"The first known cult leader of Harlem," whose life is now largely forgotten, was a central focus of criticism of Black ministers within the Black Press, especially due to ongoing debates regarding his marital life, sexuality, alleged womanizing, and the likelihood that he was a swindler. George Wilson Becton became emblematic of larger concerns about the authority - and the presumed morality - of Black ministers and the institution of the Black Church.

This microhistory uses Becton's life and that of his wife, Josephine Bufford Becton, to illuminate a number of core issues swirling around Black churches of the time, from debates about the legitimacy of the call to preach versus formal religious education, to changing ideas about the authority of clergy versus congregational authority, to the acceptance of female ministers and concerns about ministers' sexuality morality. The case of this famous and controversial figure illustrates how Black churches evolved into spaces of contention, empowering everyday Black people to define what constituted legitimate religious authority.

At once compelling and insightful, Power in the Pews draws on Becton's ministry to reconsider the role of the Black Church as not merely a refuge of faith and space for personal transformation, but as a site of cultural and social struggle between ministers and Black communities.

This book advances a new research agenda in migration studies by rethinking the 'migration state' as a core feature of modern governance. Since Hollifield introduced the concept in 2004, the migration state framework has offered a powerful lens for understanding how states reconcile competing objectives of economic openness, political control, and sovereignty in an era of global mobility.

This volume widens that lens, moving beyond Western Europe and the United States to situate migration governance within longer imperial, postcolonial, and international political-economic trajectories. The book proposes new typologies including imperial migration states, developmental migration states, and immigration rentier states, demonstrating how different configurations of state institutions, political regimes, and development strategies shape migration governance across liberal democracies and autocracies.

Bringing together leading scholars working across Asia, North Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and North America, the book examines countries of origin, destination, and transit through archival and ethnographic research, in-depth case studies, and comparative analyses. It will be of great interest for researchers, policymakers, and students in migration studies, political science, international relations, sociology, and development studies. The essays in this volume were originally published as a special issue of Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies.

Fort Bend County, Texas, looks like the America we claim to want: a suburb where Black, White, Asian, and Latinx families share cul-de-sacs, schools, and celebrations. Residents trade dishes, honor one another's traditions, and take pride in their community's diversity. Yet beneath this harmony lies what sociologist Kiara Wyndham calls "the diversity contract"-an unspoken agreement that racial diversity may be celebrated, but racial inequality must not be named. Drawing on two years of ethnographic research and more than 150 interviews, Diversityland reveals how the language of inclusion can obscure enduring racial hierarchy. In Fort Bend and communities like it, White advantage adapts to diversity rather than disappearing. Vivid and deeply researched, Diversityland transforms how we understand suburban life and challenges foundational narratives of what racial progress will look like in twenty-first-century America.

Charts the Black Catholic attempt to gain independence within the larger Catholic Church

In 1971, a delegation of Black Catholics traveled to the Vatican seeking a meeting with Pope Paul VI. While they did not meet the pope, they informed Vatican officials of the plight of Black Catholics in the United States. They wished to form their own church governance, independent from the White bishops who oversaw their diocese, so that they could exercise governance over their parishes and schools, which were frequently under threat of closure. Their journey was a chapter in a long history of struggle around African American missions and the place of African Americans in the Catholic Church.

The Black Catholic Movement charts the long arc of the movement among Black Catholics to seek independence within the Catholic Church. Influenced by the Black Power Movement's struggle for self-determination as well as the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), the Black Catholic Movement hoped to establish new ecclesiastical structures that would give them ownership over their church. When American Catholicism proved inflexible to their demands, the break-away Afrocentric Church, Imani Temple, drew thousands of Black Catholics away from Roman Catholicism.

Drawing on interviews and archival research in New Orleans, Detroit, and Washington, DC, the book reconstructs the Black Catholic struggle to maintain distinct Black Catholic communities and to preserve their spiritual, liturgical, and theological heritage. The volume comes up to the present, noting that although allowances have been made for Anglicans to enter the Catholic Church while maintaining their specific Anglican liturgies and traditions, the church has not granted this independence to Black Catholics. The debate about how to navigate unity within the Catholic Church while preserving Black Catholic heritage is still on-going. Ultimately, the book makes the case for the urgency of Black Catholic self-determination and self-governance.

How policing has fundamentally shaped the Latinx experience.

The history of Latinx groups in the United States has been marked, from the beginning, by experiences of criminalization and violence at the hands of law enforcement. Marisol LeBron argues that policing has left an indelible mark on Latinx communities across the country and has come to shape our understanding of what it means to be Latinx.

Spanning the nineteenth century to the present, Policed examines how policing became a key component in the formation of Latinx identity and political consciousness, and still lies at the heart of many pressing issues confronting Latinx communities today, including immigration, employment, health, and housing. More than simply telling a story of police brutality and harassment, LeBron powerfully shows that Latinx people have continually resisted state violence and worked to build a more liberated future.

How a cohort of young Jewish radicals from the borderlands of Eastern Europe was critical in reshaping multiracial left-wing activism in southern California

Yiddish in the Land of Sunshine offers a novel account of Eastern European Jewish immigration and Yiddish public culture in Southern California. It traces the journeys of a cohort of young Jewish radicals as they moved from the borderlands of the Russian empire to the borderlands of the American southwest, exploring their engagement with well-known labor and left-wing movements in Los Angeles.

Much of the book is focused on Boyle Heights, a residential neighborhood east of the L.A. River once home to the highest concentration of Jews west of Chicago as well as to dozens of other diasporic communities, showing how the neighborhood's particular ethno-racial diversity shaped Yiddish public culture. Rich with new details drawn from previously untranslated Yiddish sources, it examines new relationships and tensions that emerged as the Jewish radicals worked to forge multiracial coalitions in the workplace and the community, including with their Mexican, Asian, and African-American neighbors. It frames the community as a site of convergence, where multiple marginalized populations cultivated their own modes of belonging in overlapping ways, as well as of divergence, where residents' experiences were differentiated by international and domestic political-economic developments.

The book decenters traditional narratives of Jewish immigration and acculturation focused on cities of the northeast, moving Jewish workers in the west from the margins to the center of American Jewish history. It showcases the variety of organizing practices through which Jewish radicals recreated Yiddish public culture in LA, offering a new perspective on the relational dynamics of race and place-making in the American west. Yiddish in the Land of Sunshine recovers the contributions of Eastern European Jewish radicals and trade unionists, demonstrating the ways in which immigrant workers shaped the city of Los Angeles.

A comprehensive study of American Jewish responses to twentieth-century antisemitic extremism

Despite significant advances in Jewish civil rights and socioeconomic conditions throughout the twentieth century, American Jews withstood shocking acts of violence and vitriolic propaganda at the hands of right-wing, extremist groups. From the second revival of the Ku Klux Klan in the 1920s to the rise of American Nazi groups, right-wing extremism transformed in symbolism and leadership, all while making Jews a central target of their bigotry.

In The Menace Among Us, Andrew Sperling charts the history of this antagonism throughout the twentieth century US, exploring both the roots of far-right antisemitism and the diverse strategies American Jews employed to counter antisemitic extremists. For too long, the impact of American extremism on Jewish lives has been overlooked because of the false premise that "crackpot" organizations and individuals posed no meaningful threat to Jews. By closely examining Jewish experiences with extremism, this book prompts readers to rethink the role of antisemitism in American society. Relying on organizational records and personal stories often buried in local newspapers, Sperling reveals how extremist organizations mobilized against Jews and how their efforts were often tolerated by local police or dismissed by Jewish or Gentile leaders.

Harrowing yet insightful, The Menace Among Us highlights the belief systems and practices that contributed to right-wing extremism's ascent, the varied Jewish responses to antisemitic antagonism, and what we can learn from their responses when confronting antisemitism today.

This book delves into the dynamics of contemporary Asian racialisation and anti-Asian racism, exploring how these entangled phenomena shape the experiences of Asian communities across various education contexts.

It focusses on the Australian context, with its unique and understudied cultural positioning, to provide a distinct analytical lens for examining the specificities of Asian racialisation. Simultaneously, the chapters speak to transnational dialogue on racialisation and racism by exploring a range of stories from various white settler colonial nations, particularly the United States, Canada and New Zealand. Drawing on chapter contributions written exclusively by scholars identifying as Asian, this work serves as an important piece of minority voice scholarship on the multifaceted nature of Asian racialisation and anti-Asian racism.

In interrogating the nuances of Asian racialisation within education settings, it considers context-specific opportunities for anti-Asian anti-racism in educational institutions and explores the potential of anti-racist public pedagogy. This important resource will inform the research and practice of educators, researchers, policymakers, administrators and advocates who have an interest in race and education.

Affect's Engine is an immersive ethnography of queer people of color on the social media platform Tumblr during its "peak" years, 2010-2015. Alexander Cho tells the story of Tumblr users and the hurricane of content that they circulated-and that circulated around them. Chronicling a formative time in social media history, Cho shows how a multiply minoritized population utilized Tumblr's unique structure to express, emote, and bond together as a survival strategy for resisting white supremacy and heteronormativity. Paying critical attention to user-facing design, he argues that this was not as possible on other platforms. The same features that drew queer people of color to Tumblr-to feel intensely-also explain why the platform did not succeed financially: its design did not instantiate a version of the good liberal subject-linear, singular, discrete, orderly, public, and market legible. While painting a vivid picture of a vital and bygone internet era, Cho asks readers to take seriously how affect is shaped by user-facing design on social media.

How Biddy Mason crossed the continent, broke free from slavery, and built Black Los Angeles.

Born in bondage, Biddy Mason endured one of the longest forced migrations in American history-three thousand miles on foot from Georgia to California. She and her daughters labored in slavery in the "free" state of California for five years before launching a landmark emancipation suit in 1856. Free at last, she defied barriers of race and gender, rising to prominence as a healer, philanthropist, church builder, and real estate entrepreneur whose commercial properties stood at what became known as the "Wall Street of the West." By the time of her death in 1891, she had laid the foundations of Black Los Angeles and ranked among the richest women of color in the United States.

In this first book-length biography of Mason, prizewinning historian Kevin Waite uncovers an extraordinary story of survival that carries readers from the cotton South to metropolitan California, and through the Civil War, Reconstruction, and the dawn of Jim Crow. By retracing Mason's odyssey, he illuminates both the continental sweep of American slavery and the fragile, hard-won possibilities of freedom in the West.

An authoritative study of the free people of color in the largest state of the Old South

Virginia was the state with the most enslaved people prior to the Civil War. It was also at one time the state with the most resident free people of color-free from the legal disabilities specifically associated with enslavement but still denied many basic civil rights. Written by an award-winning expert on free people of color in the American South, Freedom in the Age of Slavery is the first modern comprehensive history of free Virginians of color from the colonial period through Reconstruction.

Milteer recounts in granular detail the discriminatory policies and resulting hardships that free Virginians of color faced, while also documenting the openings they created for themselves and the successes they enjoyed against overwhelming odds. Throughout, he highlights the commonwealth's significance as the laboratory for legal discrimination throughout the nation, while never losing sight of the ways free people of color seized their opportunities wherever possible and built meaningful lives in the face of massive white resistance.

Reframing the cultural narrative of Asian American motherhood-through these mothers' own voices and experiences.

The high stakes of motherhood today go beyond who qualifies as a good or bad mother, to who belongs and who is other. For Asian American mothers, these judgments have often been shaped by the enduring stereotype of the strict, academically driven "tiger mother."

In Not Tiger Moms, Miliann Kang explores the racist, xenophobic roots of this trope and how it undermines Asian American mothers, silencing their voices and inhibiting their connections to their children, to each other, and to other mothers, including their own. Through deeply personal and candid interviews, Asian American mothers who were born or grew up predominantly in the United States share stories that upend perceptions of them as both model minority reproducers and foreign threats. Instead, they chart new pathways to and through motherhood, imagining more expansive possibilities not only for Asian American mothers, but for all mothers.

For much of the twentieth century, research on Black families was dominated by narratives of deficits and dysfunction. This groundbreaking book tells a different story-one of strength, resilience, and adaptive processes within Black marriages and families. Drawing on decades of scholarship and original research, it highlights how Black couples and families navigate stress, racism, and adversity through faith, social support, fictive kin networks, and community ties. Through compelling interviews and national data, the book explores themes of hope, forgiveness, relational sanctification, and intergenerational care, offering a powerful reframing of Black family life.

This book is an essential resource for students, researchers, and practitioners in family studies, sociology, and African American studies. It is also highly relevant for anyone seeking to understand the enduring strength and resilience of Black families.

The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Marriage & Family Review.

Waiting as a Racialised Phenomenon offers a powerful and original account of the lives of migrants from East, West, North, and Sub-Saharan Africa in Tuerkiye, grounded in rich ethnographic research. Challenging dominant understandings of waiting as a neutral or purely temporal condition, the book argues that waiting is a deeply racialised process shaped by migration governance, labour regimes, and spatial marginalisation.

Moving beyond conventional accounts of migration as a linear journey, it reveals how migrants live through prolonged periods of uncertainty, suspension, and constrained mobility. These experiences vary significantly, shaped by the intersections of race, migration status, class, gender, religion, and the social spaces migrants inhabit. In this context, waiting operates as a governance tool that reinforces inequality, shaping access to employment, housing, and participation in society. At the same time, the book foregrounds migrants' agency, showing how they navigate these conditions by building networks of solidarity, care, and mutual support. Waiting thus emerges not only as a form of domination but also as a space where resilience and collective strategies of survival take shape. The book ultimately provides a new conceptual tool with which to explore the links between waiting and racism in the context of the global South, arguing that waiting is a racialised phenomenon which can lead to additional exploitation.

This innovative and timely book will appeal to academics and post-graduate students with interests in migration and borders, race and racism, temporality and the politics of time, anthropology, and international development.

Harmony and Harassment traces the headwaters of critical race theory (CRT) to the rural community of Harmony, Mississippi, at the height of the 1960s US civil rights movement. As Aja Y. Martinez and Robert O. Smith explore these headwaters, readers meet key community leaders such as Behonor McDonald, Winson Hudson, and Dovie Hudson. These Black women's activism for civil rights, voting rights, and educational access transformed their community while also providing the foundations for Derrick Bell's legal theories, Alice Walker's womanist concept, and the enduring educational program now known as Head Start. Building on extensive archival research and a web of deeply human relationships, Martinez and Smith argue for renewed appreciation of counterstory as central to CRT methodology. Harmony and Harassment shows how CRT developed from the ground up; from this foundation, its insights continue to hold great potential for strengthening education, legal studies, and the humanities and social sciences.

Traces the history of the Oakland Community School, the last Community Survival Program of the Black Panther Party

Education for the Revolution offers the first comprehensive historical account of the last standing survival program of the Black Panther Party, the Oakland Community School. First established as the Children's House in 1970 and operational until 1982, the Oakland Community School provided grade school children with holistic educational and communal practices that oriented them to the Black Panther Party's political consciousness. Drawing from newspapers, oral histories, and archives, historian Robert P. Robinson links the history of the school to the Black historical tradition of resistance via education, framing the school as a union of Black self-determination and education history.

Robinson situates the Oakland Community School within the Black Panther Party's longstanding commitment to using education as a tool to achieve liberation. Long before terms like restorative justice, gender inclusion, and culturally relevant pedagogy were popular in classrooms, Robinson explores how students of the Oakland Community School were regarded as co-creators of knowledge alongside their teachers, local activists, and parents. Combining personal reflections from parents, students, and former faculty with an analysis of the school's concrete teaching practices, the book asserts that their histories are vital to present-day educational efforts.

Whereas popular narratives of the Black Panther Party argue that their political activism ceased by the early 1970s, this history of the Oakland Community School illuminates Black Panther women's continued efforts to grow power through education. At once compelling and revelatory, Education for the Revolution cements the Oakland Community School's legacy as one of the most enduring Black independent education projects for social justice, as well as a fascinating precursor to critical forms of education seen today.

This book examines the complex interplay between migration, media representation, and policy formation in Southeastern Europe.

This volume brings together eighteen chapters, most based on primary research, along with an introductory chapter outlining key issues, to explore media narratives, public perception, political systems, and migration policy. Focusing on Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, Bulgaria, and Hungary, it reveals how media representations both reflect and shape migration realities. In turn, evolving policies redefine those realities, creating a dynamic cycle that influences societal attitudes toward people on the move across Southeastern Europe and beyond - by shedding light on these interconnections, the book offers valuable insights into how migration continues to shape international relations.

Aimed at scholars of media and migration, students, journalists, policymakers, and an informed general audience, particularly in Europe, this volume provides a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of one of the most pressing issues of our time.

Far from the Model Minority centers the voices of five undocumented and mixed-status Chinese immigrant families in New York City and their sending communities in Fuzhou, China. Challenging dominant narratives about Chinese Americans and the model-minority myth, these families have experienced multigenerational exclusion from educational pathways and developed mobility strategies focused on attaining "face."

In China, low social standing led them to prioritize immigration and remittance work over education, as overseas success became the primary way to garner face. Yet in the United States, undocumented status and poverty created new barriers to their and their children's acculturation, and the intersection of undocumented life and the culture of remittances often undermined the intended face gain for families back home and reinforced social stagnation. Based on four years of ethnographic research, Jia-Lin Liu's work explores how these transnational families respond to enduring structural exclusions by reimagining achievement and dignity across borders.

Race and Gender in the US Economy is the first economic and legal analysis of the status of women and Asian, Black, and Latinx Americans in the United States. Gerald Jaynes argues that changing antidiscrimination laws had an undervalued impact on behavioral norms as Americans fought to end discrimination in the country's institutions. These fights often happened outside the economic marketplace and yet improved the economic status of people of color and women.

Building on his decades of expertise, Jaynes blends economic reasoning and data with bold historical narrative to examine how developments in constitutional law, extending from the Thirteenth Amendment's abolition of slavery to and beyond the Civil Rights Act of 1964, changed the economic status of minoritized groups. He provides readers with an insightful new way of looking at the effectiveness of political action in determining economic gains.

This important volume empirically explores the lives of migrants experiencing long-term temporariness under temporary labour migration programmes (TLMPs) implemented by a number of governments in the Global South and becoming emerging actors in the social fabric of migrant-receiving countries.

Focusing on the Philippines-United Arab Emirates (UAE) migration corridor over the past 50 years, the book illuminates the dynamic interplay among temporary migration policies, migrants' lived experiences and rapid urban development. Chapters concentrate on three key areas-macrostructural aspects of the corridor; migrants' agency in navigating temporariness; and emerging trends from below-and incorporate policy-oriented and ethnographic analyses. As well as offering policy implications, the book demonstrates how a proportion of Filipino migrants do not merely adapt to the TLMP, but also undergo significant transformations themselves in tandem with the UAE's economic restructuring and rapid urban development. The Philippines-UAE migration corridor's role as an evolving experiment supports the broader insights into how large-scale temporary migration flows might unfold in other regions in the future.

The volume ultimately offers a new way of thinking about temporary labour migration as a dynamic, socially embedded process in the contemporary Global South, and will therefore be of use to scholars and postgraduate students in the fields of international migration, Asian diaspora studies and Southeast Asian studies more broadly.

Racial and classed inequalities in education are relational, yet they are too often studied separately.

This edited volume tackles the interlocking systems of disadvantage linked to race and class that shape learning experiences across different stages of education. Through a Bourdieusian lens, the chapters reveal how policy, pedagogy and everyday practice reproduce or challenge inequities, offering new ways to understand inclusion and belonging in diverse educational spaces.

This is a must-read for educators, researchers and policymakers committed to combatting educational inequalities and promoting equity and social justice.

The question of antiracism has emerged as a critical dimension of contemporary debates about racial and ethnic relations across the globe. This edited collection brings together scholarship that examines the multifaceted nature of contemporary antiracist thought and practice.

Drawing on case studies from Britain, France, Brazil, the Dominican Republic, and Australia, the volume addresses key theoretical perspectives on antiracism, traces how antiracist movements and ideas have evolved in different national contexts and analyses their influence on policy and political agendas. The essays in this book explore pressing issues including white gatekeeping in antiracist spaces, the commodification of antiracism, the invisibility of African diaspora experiences, anti-Asian racism, and the tensions between antiracist activism and state power. The collection provides critical insights into the paradoxes, possibilities, and limitations of antiracist politics in an era of global racial reckoning.

Offering an authoritative overview of contemporary antiracist theories and strategies across diverse national environments, this volume is essential reading for scholars, students, and practitioners seeking to understand the complex landscape of antiracism in the twenty-first century. It will be of particular interest to those working in sociology, race and ethnic studies, political science, social policy, and activism studies. The chapters were originally published as a special issue of Ethnic and Racial Studies.
