Why read it?

1 author picked Race and Races as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The text gently gets students to expand their knowledge base and confront what they learned (or did not learn) in other courses. I enjoy this textbook every time that I use it.

From Beverly's list on understanding critical race theory.
