In "Look, a Negro!, political theorist Robert Gooding-Williams imaginatively and impressively unpacks fundamental questions around issues of race and racism. Inspired by Frantz Fanon's famous description of the profound effect of being singled out by a white child with the words "Look, a Negro!," his book is an insightful, rich and unusually wide ranging work of social criticism. These essays engage the themes that have centrally occupied recent discussion of race and racial identity, among them, the workings of racial ideology (including the interplay of gender and sexuality in the articulation of racial ideology); the viability of social constructionist theories of race; the significance of Afrocentrism and multiculturalism for democracy; the place of black identity in the imagination and articulation of America's inheritance of philosophy; and the conceptualization of African American politics in post-segregation America. "Look, a Negro! will be of interest to philosophers, political theorists, and critical race theorists, students of cultural studies and film, and readers concerned with the continuing importance of race-consciousness to democratic culture in the United States.
