Requests:  0 Summary:  Weaving memories of his own family's experiences with strands of history, Johnson posits that a blueprint for national solidarity can be found in the exceptional citizenship long practiced in Black America, augmented by a more enduring version of the solidarity among members of the military or in communities recovering from a natural disaster. Understanding that racism is a structural crime of the state, he argues that overcoming it requires us to recognize that a color-conscious society-- not a color-blind one-- is the true fulfillment of the American Promise. -- adapted from jacket   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 305.80097 Jo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Jo Checked In Add Copy to MyList
