Description
Systemic Racism: A Theory of Oppression by Joe R. Feagin explores how racial oppression has shaped American society over nearly four centuries. Feagin examines the ways in which major institutions have been influenced by racial stereotypes, ideas, images, and practices, arguing that this system of oppression was intentionally created by white Americans. Despite significant changes over time, key elements of racism have remained consistent, with US institutions continuing to reflect a racialized hierarchy established in the 17th century. Racial oppression is not just a surface-level feature of society; it pervades and interconnects all major social groups, networks, and institutions across American society. This book provides a nuanced analysis of systemic racism, shedding light on its enduring impact on contemporary US society.
