It traces the history of political debate about racism, the development of national and local political agendas, the role of racist and black political organizations and the impact of urban unrest and conflict. The text will be of interest to both specialists and general readers who are interested in the political debates about the role of racism and the struggle for racial justice in advanced industrial societies.
