Race and Morality How Good Intentions Undermine Social Justice and Perpetuate Inequality

This book attempts to explain why it has been so difficult to solve America's racial problems as the country has moved from what the author describes as a closed caste to an open class society. The author contends that Americans fail to perceive how the legacy of slavery interferes with social mobility and highlights the values that middle-class blacks and whites need to uphold, most prominently the emphasis on freedom as opposed to total equality.Fein, Melvyn L. is the author of 'Race and Morality How Good Intentions Undermine Social Justice and Perpetuate Inequality' with ISBN 9780306465130 and ISBN 0306465132.
