Description
First published in 1993. This study traces the complex social, economic, religious, and political forces which affected African-Americans and their overall response to them. It more specifically illustrates how the prevailing views and actions of the dominant society serve to limit the aspirations of African-Americans in rising above their supposed place within American life.
