      abstract = {"Distinguished historian John H. Bracey Jr. offers a  provocative analysis of the devastating economic,  political, and social effects of racism on white Americans.  In a departure from analyses of racism that have focused  primarily on white power and privilege, Bracey trains his  focus on the high price that white people, especially  working class whites, have paid for more than two centuries  of divisive race-based policies and attitudes. Whether he's  discussing the pivotal role slavery played in the war for  independence, the two million white Americans who died in a  civil war fought over the question of slavery, or how  business owners took advantage of the segregation of  America's first labor unions and used low-wage,  non-unionized black workers to undercut the bargaining  power of white workers, Bracey's central point is that  failing to acknowledge the centrality of race, and racism,  to the American project not only minimizes the suffering of  black people, but also blinds us to how racism and white  privilege have harmed white people as well."--Container.},
