On Race and Philosophy

"[The book] is bound to cited wherever the issues it raises are discussed." -- Library Journal
"Outlaw offers a deeply considered, radical interpretation of the significance of race, not only in philosophy, but in modernity. A wide range of important approaches--including critical theory, pragmatism, poststructuralism, African philosophy, and Afrocentrism are deeply illuminated by his brilliant and humane interrogations. Drawing inspiration from a careful reading of W.E.B. Du Bois, Outlaw provides compelling and controversial new perspectives on the dynamics of race which will resonate in many disciplines for years to come." -- Howard Winant, Professor of Sociology, Temple University
