Description
What are the conditions needed for our nation to bridge cultural and racial divides? In the spirit of previous classics like Outlaw Culture and Reel to Real , this new collection of compelling essays interrogates contemporary cultural notions of race, gender, and class. From the films Precious and Crash to recent biographies of Malcolm X and Henrietta Lacks, hooks offers provocative insights into the way race is being talked about in this "post-racial" era.
