How white and black people thought about race and how both groups understood and attempted to define and control the demographic transformation are the subjects of this new book by a rising star in American history. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAn elegant account of the roiling environment that witnessed the shift from the multiplicity of white races to the arrival of biracialism, this book focuses on four representative spokesmen for the transforming age: Daniel Cohalan, the Irish-American nationalist, Tammany Hall man, and ruthless politician; Madison Grant, the patrician eugenicist and noisy white supremacist; W. E. B. Du Bois, the African-American social scientist and advocate of social justice; and Jean Toomer, the American pluralist and novelist of the interior life. Race, politics, and classification were their intense and troubling preoccupations in a world they did not create, would not accept, and tried to change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Pratt Guterl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0674010124\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780674010123\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harvard University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/30\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.38h x 6.20w x 0.66d","brand":"Matthew Pratt Guterl","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44120019894527,"sku":"9780674010123","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1338dd24-a841-4aea-9c39-959f61c0565d.jpg?v=1687412126","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-color-of-race-in-matthew-pratt-guterl-9780674010123","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
