Title

My Race Problem - A consideration of touchy matters -- racial pride, racial solidarity, and racial loyalty -- rarely discussed.

Description

Randall Kennedy asks a challenging question: What is the proper role of race in determining how I, an American black, should feel toward others? He rejects the usual responses of kinship and solidarity based on race and discusses their inherent problems.. He suggests that Americans reconsider and reconstruct the basis of our feelings of pride and kinship.
