あらすじ・解説
A Cold Civil War has engulfed the nation.
After a deadly pandemic, shocking incidents of police brutality, a racial justice crisis, and the fall of a dangerous demagogue, America remains more divided than at any time in decades. At the heart of this national crisis is the fear of a darkening America - a country in which there is no longer a predominant White majority.
As the Republican Party has lost the popular vote in seven of the last eight presidential elections, its leaders have incited White Americans in a last-ditch race against time to stop the advance of a new, multiracial emerging majority. Keith Boykin, longtime political commentator, has watched this White resentment consume the GOP over the course of a life in politics, activism, and journalism. He has also observed the divisions among Democrats, as White progressives have postponed demands for full racial equity, while Black voters have often been too forgiving of party leaders who have failed to deliver. America can no longer avoid its long overdue reckoning with the past, Boykin argues. With the familiarity of personal experience and the acuity of historical insight, Boykin urges us to fight racism, sexism, xenophobia, and homophobia and save the union, not just by making Black lives matter, but by making Black lives equal.
批評家のレビュー
“In Race Against Time: The Politics of a Darkening America, Keith Boykin provides us with the insights of someone who is an eyewitness to history. This is history we have made together and lessons Boykin recommends to help shape the future.” (Donna Brazile, former chair of the Democratic National Committee)
“In evocative fashion, and through the depth of his personal experiences at the highest levels of American politics, Keith Boykin traces the parameters of America’s ‘never-ending civil war,’ from the shock of Clinton’s Black-voter-driven presidency though Bush and Obama and the white nationalist nightmare of Donald Trump. Race Against Time is essential reading at a calamitous time.” (Joy Reid, host of MSNBC’s The ReidOut)
“With clear insights and provocative analysis, Keith Boykin showcases why he is one of the country’s foremost experts on race and politics in America. This book is timely, relevant, and important.” (Leah Wright Rigueur, associate research professor at Johns Hopkins University)
