Produktbeschreibung
The quest for racial equality is critical to the realization of the unfulfilled American promise, yet the debate around how best to achieve that goal is generally led by the most virulent voices on the issues. The result is often a storm of attacks on anyone who falls between the most extreme opinions. Author Donald Blair gives voice to the unspoken views of a majority population coming to terms with the promise and failings of our American ideals. Confessions of a Racist provides readers a look inside the thoughts of this silent Middle Majority. Caught between good intentions and cautious defensiveness, this Middle Majority rarely engages in discussions of race despite their potential to substantially contribute to a positive path forward. Through a review of the perspectives, programs, and positions that run through America's equality efforts, Blair provides an honest - and often surprising - map of how we might progress towards a more equitable society.

Autorenporträt
Donald Blair does not have academic or professional credentials in sociology, political science, or law. That has proved to be his main qualification. As experts and pundits grow increasingly divided, Blair gives voice to those more concerned with doing the right thing than with contrived displays of controversy and confrontation. Blair comes to the topic of racial equity as a mindful member of the Middle Majority, a group accustomed to keeping to themselves as they try to avoid the heightened emotions and discomfort that characterizes discussions of race in America. In Confessions of a Racist, Blair has garnered significant attention by presenting the unique Middle Majority perspective that defies the conventional wisdom of both the conservative and liberal establishment.
