This book presents a fresh, comprehensive look at American Black-White relations. Drawing on his decades of experience at the intersection of social psychology and intergroup relations, Thomas F. Pettigrew demonstrates the advances made in recent years that promise a decline in anti-Black racism--especially in politics and education, but also highlights where American racism remains firmly entrenched--in economics, housing, and the justice system. The book emphasizes the central importance of segregated housing that restrains both interracial contact and the growth of Black-American wealth. It closes with new proposal for Black reparations that could be generated from billionaires alone.
