The Wages of Whiteness: Race and the Making of the American Working Class

Resource Type

Book

Description

"A second edition of this widely adopted study of working-class racism. The Wages of Whiteness provides an original study of the formative years of working-class racism in the United States. In an afterword to this second edition, Roediger discusses recent studies of whiteness and the changing face of labor itself. He surveys criticism of his work, accepting many such criticisms while challenging others, especially the view that the study of working-class racism implies a rejection of Marxism and radical politics."--Publisher (barnesandnoble.com)
