Interesting material

Great analysis for the deconstructing of social constructions such as race, gender, and class. Very easy to understand, and full of interesting topic material. From more works like this, you start to understand the disparity and hegemony that imbalances of power have perpetuated. With hope, we can progress to become a more equal and fair society for everyone

Great qualitity

The book i recieved was in perfect condition (the one stated in the description) and I recieved the product in a timely manner even though it was ordered over the holidays.

College book, messages for everyone

I was required to read this book for one of my graduate classes and enjoyed the format and topics. The variety of authors and perspectives is interesting, and even though it talks down to the read in some of the section introductions, the overrall message becomes clear: the systems in place that support racism and bigotry are large and well supported, but you can still do something starting with your most important asset- you.
