"“In a moment when public discussions of antiracism are more salient than ever before, Pierce offers a rigorous and poignant philosophical clarification of what racial equality entails and demands. Masterfully blending historical evidence with normative critique, Pierce identifies the limitations of liberal antiracism, centered on privilege-talk, and defends a capacious vision based in ""interest convergence,"" that highlights racial and economic justice.” - Alex Zamalin, Rutgers University, author of Antiracism: An Introduction. “This book is a must read for educators at all levels, especially for those teaching the topic of racial inequality. Pierce shows how merely asking white students to acknowledge their racial privilege is inadequate, and offers the kind of new approach needed for a nation increasingly roiled by racial division and injustice.” - Leslie Margolin, University of Iowa, author of Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack: The Invention of White Privilege Pedagogy. “This provocative book challenges us to think anew about what we really want from anti-racism, redirecting our focus to the real prize: improving material conditions for people of color and white people alike.” - Lisa Pruitt, UC Davis Martin Luther King Jr. Professor of Law."
