Kofi Buenor Hadjor’s work debunks the myth that race is not an important factor in US life. Hadjor tackles a wide range of issues, including the role of media in perpetuating common misunderstandings about race, the consequences of reduced funds for employment training, housing, and education, and the reasoning behind conservative scapegoating of African Americans.
Praise
“[A] sensible, revealing appraisal of our continuing racial dilemma. Hadjor brings to his analysis the eye of an African who has lived long in the United States. It is a viewpoint that clarifies the history and the prognosis for African American Liberation.”
—Immanuel Wallerstein
“[I]nformative and provocative. Useful for serious students of African American studies, political science, sociology, economics, and for the general reader as well. Another America exposes the insincerity involved in the conversation on race as a factor of social politics.”
—Journal of Black Studies
