"I applaud the editors for their state-of-the-art collection in race and racism studies.This volume will serve as a valuable teaching tool." Gloria Wekker, Utrecht University"This anthology provides a remarkable synthesis of race theorizing across the humanities and the social sciences – and yet also manages to be both historical and vitally contemporary. Indeed, by incorporating the self-conscious reflections of current thinkers, it often has the quality of a living and breathing text." Troy Duster, New York University "In the current publishers' rush for student driven grab-and-go Readers, Race Critical Theories represents something of an exception - a collection of seminal texts with a clear critical intellectual project driving its production and seeking to move research agendas forward." Ethnic and Racial Studies "[T]his is an excellent undergraduate text - bringing together sizeable portions of seminal contemporary discourse and feminist-centered writing on racism and the writng it has influenced - which is likely to prove of great value in teaching."
