"...this is an essential reading for those concerned with the
demographic composition of political science and philosophy as well
as those wondering why this should be considered a concern." --
Contemporary Political Theory
"Black Rights/White Wrongs, Mills's latest book, is that
long-awaited result: his most thorough account yet of why and how
liberal political theory has gone wrong. He returns to his
criticism that liberal theory has mainly been attentive to and
representative of the sociohistorical demands of white people (men
in particular), but he also argues for a refreshed liberalism that
retains its core political commitments while offering a fuller
reckoning with
the racial hierarchies and inequalities of America's past and
present."- Christopher Lebron, The Nation
