What causes a society to develop and normalize racial hatred and violence? When Anders A. Eklof arrived in Alabama in 1961 as a young man from Sweden, he entered a world profoundly different from the one in which he had grown up. Raised in a society largely free of racial conflict, he was unprepared for the hostility, segregation, and deep emotional divisions that defined the American South during the Civil Rights era. What he witnessed left a lasting impression. Over the following decades, Eklof set out to understand the historical and psychological forces behind anti-Black prejudice in the United States. Drawing on extensive historical research as well as personal experience, he examines how racial hostility developed, evolved, and persisted across four centuries of American history. Anti-Black Prejudice in America explores major forces that shaped this history, including: - The legacy of slavery and the creation of racial hierarchy - The rise of Jim Crow laws and institutionalized segregation, systematic discrimination, and lynchings - The influence of pseudoscientific racism and the eugenics movement - The Civil Rights movement and the upheavals of the 1960s - The continuing challenges of racial inequality in modern America Combining historical analysis with a unique personal perspective, Eklof investigates how prejudice can become embedded in social institutions and cultural beliefs, and why its effects continue to shape American society today. This is not a comfortable book. It is a serious and deeply researched examination of one of the most troubling and enduring conflicts in American history.
