Both sections are located in the context of the post-racial era and analyzed by nationally renowned scholars in various dimensions. The purpose of this organization is to link structural efforts to encourage voluntary integration with discursive efforts to broaden our social understanding of race in ways that advance the project of American democracy. It is our firm belief that we cannot achieve meaningful advances against enduring racial inequalities without linking structural impacts of racialization (e.g., racial inequalities in economics, education, healthcare, etc.) to the social discourse of race, specifically in terms of the rejection of post-racial politics that are based on the false idea that racism and discrimination are no longer obstacles to opportunity in the United States.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReclaiming Integration and the Language of Race in the Post-Racial Era assembles an influential body of scholars to raise our national conscience and call us to take action against the enduring injustice of racial segregation and its inherent effects of inequality. 60 years after Brown v. Board, our mission to achieve integration remains as relevant and fundamental to our democracy as at any time in our history. -- Damon J. Keith, Judge\u003cbr\u003eReclaiming Integration and the Language of Race in the Post-Racial Era is a powerful read about the salience of race and inequity of opportunity existent in the United States. Through a much-needed multidisciplinary analysis of segregation and integration, the essays presented critically address the problematic nature of utilizing colorblind discourse to address enduring racial segregation and racism. Importantly, the authors offer comprehensive, original, and feasible strategies to reclaim the goal of integration. -- Sarah Diem, PhD, Assistant Professor, Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis, Faculty Affiliate, Harry S.
