In the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement, there has been a renewed focus on race and racism in America. But even as the nation grapples with its racial history, there is a persistent belief that we are living in a "post-racial" society. This belief is often expressed in the idea of "colorblindness," the notion that we should ignore race and treat everyone as individuals.

But as the authors of Seeing Race Again argue, colorblindness is a myth. Race continues to shape our lives in profound ways, even if we don't always see it. Drawing on research from a variety of disciplines, the authors show how race is embedded in our institutions, our culture, and our very psyches.

Seeing Race Again is a powerful indictment of colorblindness and a call for a more just and equitable society. The authors provide a comprehensive overview of the latest research on race and racism, and they offer concrete steps that we can all take to challenge racial inequality.
