But change alone does not ensure a decline in racism. In \u003cem\u003eAnti-Black Racism in America\u003c\/em\u003e, renowned race relations scholar Thomas F. Pettigrew undertakes a comprehensive assessment of the key trends in racism against Black Americans, drawing on a wide range of scholarship and his own decades of experience in the field. The book describes the advances made in recent years that promise a decline in anti-Black racism--especially in politics and education, but it also highlights where American racism remains firmly entrenched--in economics, housing, and the justice system. Employing significant insights from social psychology, such as understanding implicit prejudice and the importance of intergroup contact, Pettigrew lays out a theory of racism centering the importance of segregation in housing for its perpetuation, and makes the case for reparations funded by billionaires.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47779266298007,"sku":"9780197803103","price":10756.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780197803103.webp?v=1778034883","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/anti-black-racism-in-america-is-it-declining-9780197803103","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
