| Description: |
An investigation of the issue of race over a generation of labor |
| Synopsis: |
Winner of the Gustavus Myers Center Award (1990) The Arrogance of Race is a significant contribution to the historiography of slavery and racism in America. George Fredrickson, one of the most respected and cogent historians of this complex and troubling subject, maintains that racism is a cultural phenomenon not a mere by-product of class conflict and colonialism. He opts for a "dualistic" rather than a more popular monolithic explanation of the tragedy of racism. |
