"Despite promising changes over the last century, race remains a central organizing
principle in US society, a key arena of inequality, power, and privilege, and the
subject of ongoing conflict and debate. In this second edition of Recognizing Race
and Ethnicity, Kathleen J. Fitzgerald continues to examine the sociology of race and
encourages students to think differently by challenging the notion that we are, or
should even aspire to be, color-blind. Fitzgerald considers how race manifests in
both significant and obscure ways by looking across all racial/ethnic groups within
the socio-historical context of institutions and arenas, rather than discussing each
group by group. Incorporating recent research and contemporary theoretical perspectives,
she guides students to examine racial ideologies and identities as well as structural
racism; at the same time, she covers topics like popular culture, sports, and interracial
relationships. This latest edition includes an expanded look at global perspectives
on racial inequality, including international migration and Islamophobia; updated
examples of contemporary issues, including the Black Lives Matter movement; more emphasis
on intersectionality, specifically the ways sexuality and race intersect; and an extended
discussion on why the sociology of race and the sociological imagination matter. Recognizing
Race and Ethnicity continues to reflect the latest sociological research on race/ethnicity
and provides unparalleled coverage of white privilege while remaining careful not
to treat "white" as the norm against which all other groups are defined"
