Reviews

Erudite, nuanced, accessible, and passionate, White Writers, Race Matters makes a strong case for attending to these attempts to 'awaken outrage' by bringing to light their complexity, courage and vigor, as well as their limitations. At a time when a lot more awakened outrage directed at American racism would be very good for us, Jay shows the way to taking a new kind of interest in the lives and works of these writers who tried to do just that. --Mitchell Breitwieser, University of California, Berkeley Extensively researched, theoretically informed and well-written, Gregory S. Jay's White Writers, Race Matters is a significant contribution to the literature of U.S. racial liberalism, one that should appeal to a broad educated audience as well as scholars and advanced students. --Fred Hobson, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
