Recenzii
In this time of rising authoritarianism, white nationalism, and white supremacy, this collection of essays provides the background to Dr. William Jones' creative and critical methods for elucidating the structural injustice that shapes our world. With this resource, we can better live out his legacy of addressing the ongoing mutations of racial injustice, and his vision of co-equal freedom, authority and power.
