      abstract = {According to many pundits and cultural commentators, the  U.S. is enjoying a post-racial age, thanks in part to  Barack Obama's rise to the presidency. This high gloss of  optimism fails, however, to recognize that racism remains  ever present and alive, spread by channels of media and  circulated even in colloquial speech in ways that can be  difficult to analyze. In this groundbreaking collection  edited by Michael G. Lacy and Kent A. Ono, scholars seek to  examine this complicated and contradictory terrain while  moving the field of communication in a more intellectually  productive direction. An outstanding group of contributors  from a range of academic backgrounds challenges traditional  definitions and applications of rhetoric. From the  troubling media representations of black looters after  Hurricane Katrina and rhetoric in news coverage about the  Columbine and Virginia Tech massacres to cinematic  representations of race in Crash, Blood Diamond, and  Quentin Tarantino's films, these essays reveal complex  intersections and constructions of racialized bodies and  discourses, critiquing race in innovative and exciting  ways. Critical Rhetorics of Race seeks not only to  understand and navigate a world fraught with racism, but to  change it, one word at a time.},
