In the first decades of the twentieth century, virulent racism lingered from Reconstruction, and segregation increased. Hostility met the millions of new immigrants from Eastern and southern Europe, and immigration was restricted. Still, even in an inhospitable climate, blacks and other minority groups came to have key roles in popular culture, from ragtime and jazz to film and the Harlem Renaissance. This volume is THE content-rich source in a desirable decade-by-decade organization to help students and general readers understand the crucial race relations of the start of modern America. Race.
Provides an overview of race relations in the United States during the 1960s and 1970s, including a timeline, key events, profiles of important people, government and legal affairs, and social and cultural developments.
Throughout the fourteenth edition of Racial and Ethnic Groups, author Richard T. Schaefer helps students view race and ethnic relations in a socio-historical context, so they can understand the past and best shape the future.
