Description
The census race question has been a contentious issue in America for decades. Kenneth Prewitt argues that the current classification system is flawed and cannot accurately reflect the complexities of American society. Prewitt proposes radical change, calling for the elimination of the race question from the census. He suggests that this step could be part of a broader effort to move beyond a classification system rooted in discredited eighteenth-century science. Instead, Prewitt advocates for a more nuanced approach that acknowledges the diversity of American experiences. By examining the history and limitations of the current system, What Is Your Race? offers a compelling case for change.
