Contents:

Frederick Douglass's political apostasy -- Color blindness and the browning of America -- The Black-white binary as racial anxiety and demand for justice -- Interracial intimacies : racism and political romance of the browning of America -- Responsible multiracial politics.

Summary: "This book considers the challenge that the so-called browning of America poses for any discussion of the future of race and social justice. In the philosophy of race there has been little reflection about how the rapid increase in the Latino, Asian American, and mixed-race populations affects the historical demands for racial justice by Native Americans and African Americans. Ronald R. Sundstrom examines how recent demographic shifts bear upon central questions in race theory and social and political philosophy, including color blindness, interracial intimacy, and the future of race. Sundstrom cautions that rather than getting caught up in romantic reveries about the browning of America, we should remain vigilant that longstanding claims for racial justice not be washed away." --Book Jacket.
