A reassessment of the ideas that Americans have had about race, this text draws on the perspectives of history, sociology, theology, American studies and ethnic studies to tell the history of the American system of racial domination and of 20th-century challenges to that racial hierarchy, from monoracial movements to the multiracial movement.

Racial Thinking in the United States is a comprehensive reassessment of the ideas that Americans have had about race. This useful book draws on the skills and perspectives of nine scholars from the fields of history, sociology, theology, American studies, and ethnic studies. In thirteen carefully crafted essays they tell the history of the American system of racial domination and of twentieth-century challenges to that racial hierarchy, from monoracial movements to the multiracial movement.

Racial Thinking in the United States provides excellent summaries of historical events and cultural movements, as well as analysis and criticism. It will be a welcome text for undergraduate courses in ethnic studies and American history.

Paul Spickard is professor of history at the University of California, Santa Barbara. G. Reginald Daniel is associate professor of sociology at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
