Diversity Explosion: How New Racial Demographics Are Remaking America

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Race is once again a contentious topic in America, as shown by the divisive rise of Donald Trump and the activism of groups like Black Lives Matter. Yet Diversity Explosion argues that the current period of profound racial change will lead to a less-divided America than today's older whites or younger minorities fear.
