📘 Anti-racism in U.S. history by Herbert Aptheker

"My study has persuaded me that the following generalizations are valid: (1) anti-racism is more common among so-called lower classes than among the so-called upper class; (2) anti-racism expecially appears among white people who have had significant experiences with people of African origin; and (3) anti-racism seems to be more common among women than men"--Introd.
