Either develop constructive, non-pejorative means to discuss and explore issues of race and racism on college campuses and in American society, or expect students to act upon their socially conditioned racial antagonisms in a way that will shatter the presumed serenity of academic environments. Kudos to Marcus for bringing this unpleasant little secret into the light of day."-William B. Harvey, Dean School of Education, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee ?An extended history of racism is followed by an analysis of the affirmative action debate; other chapters deal at length with such issues as college speech codes. The analysis...is certainly extensive: Marcus strings together...pages of quotes and statistics, occasionally pausing for interpolations. Using as his model the disruption caused at Kean college in 1993 by a speech by Nation of Islam's Khalid Abdul Muhamad, Marcus then looks at what colleges should and should not do to reduce hate speech.?-Kirkus Reviews ?While Marcus suggests that it may be possible to tighten regulations to combat campus hate speech, he also argues that it is more important to prevent such expressions by promoting racial harmony. To pursue such goals, he proposes, colleges might aim to perform a "human relations audit," a report (as done at some corporations) on race relations.?-Publishers Weekly "While Marcus suggests that it may be possible to tighten regulations to combat campus hate speech, he also argues that it is more important to prevent such expressions by promoting racial harmony.
