Race And Democracy: An Anthropologist's View (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781258632076)

""Race and Democracy: An Anthropologist's View"" by Elmer R. Smith is a thought-provoking book that explores the complex relationship between race and democracy in the United States. Drawing on his extensive experience as an anthropologist, Smith presents a nuanced and insightful analysis of how race has shaped American democracy from its inception to the present day.The book begins by examining the historical roots of racial inequality in America, tracing the legacy of slavery and segregation that has persisted despite the formal end of these practices. Smith then turns his attention to the contemporary political landscape, exploring the ways in which race continues to shape the political discourse and the policies that are enacted at all levels of government.Throughout the book, Smith emphasizes the importance of understanding the cultural and social factors that contribute to racial inequality, and he offers a compelling argument for why a more nuanced and empathetic approach to race is necessary if we are to achieve true democracy in America. With its insightful analysis and engaging writing style, ""Race and Democracy: An Anthropologist's View"" is a must-read for anyone interested in the ongoing struggle for racial justice in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
