Colorblind The Rise of Post-Racial Politics and the Retreat from Racial Equity by Tim Wise
In this critically lauded book, Wise argues against “colorblindness” and for a deeper color-consciousness in both public and private practice. He asserts that we can only begin to move toward authen- tic social and economic equity through what Wise calls “illuminated individualism”—acknowledging the diverse identities that have shaped our perceptions and the role that race continues to play in the maintenance of disparities between whites and people of color in the United States today. Colorblind presents a timely and provocative look at contemporary racism and offers fresh ideas on what can be done to achieve true social justice and economic equality.
