520    "As Ferguson, Missouri, erupted in August 2014, and media 
       commentators across the ideological spectrum referred to 
       the angry response of African Americans as 'black rage, ' 
       historian Carol Anderson wrote an op-ed in the Washington 
       Post showing that this was, instead, 'white rage at work. 
       With so much attention on the flames, ' she writes, 
       'everyone had ignored the kindling.' Since 1865 and the 
       passage of the Thirteenth Amendment, every time African 
       Americans have made advances towards full participation in
       our democracy, white reaction has fueled a deliberate and 
       relentless rollback of their gains. The end of the Civil 
       War and Reconstruction was greeted with the Black Codes 
       and Jim Crow; the Supreme Court's landmark 1954 Brown v. 
       Board of Education decision was met with the shutting down
       of public schools throughout the South while taxpayer 
       dollars financed segregated white private schools; the 
       Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965 
       triggered a coded but powerful response, the so-called 
       Southern Strategy and the War on Drugs that 
       disenfranchised millions of African Americans while 
       propelling presidents Nixon and Reagan into the White 
       House. Carefully linking these and other historical flash 
       points when social progress for African Americans was 
       countered by deliberate and cleverly crafted opposition, 
       Anderson pulls back the veil that has long covered actions
       made in the name of protecting democracy, fiscal 
       responsibility, or protection against fraud, rendering 
       visible the long lineage of white rage. Compelling and 
       dramatic in the unimpeachable history it relates, White 
       Rage will add an important new dimension to the national 
       conversation about race in America."--Publisher's
