Alle Exemplare der Ausgabe mit dieser ISBN anzeigen:“Theories of race and racism have proven to be some of the most capable frameworks for understanding our complex modern society. Charisse Levchak makes an important contribution to this literature by examining the multi-faceted nature of how microaggressions operate. One of Levachak's greatest contributions is the development of solid middle theories that apply to some of the most systematically undertheorized domains of black life in the 21st century: media, culture and durable inequalities. Middle theories provide robust testable mechanisms that further our understanding of the social world. Levchak's book is a great book for graduate and undergraduate courses in stratification, culture, race, and media. Well-written and thoughtfully engaged, Levchak's argument provides critical links between our discourses and ourselves.” (Tressie McMillan Cottom, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Sociology I Virginia Commonwealth University, Faculty Associate l Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society l Harvard University)
“After Philomena Essed’s groundbreaking book in the early 90s, Understanding Everyday Racism: An Interdisciplinary Theory, the concept of microaggressions and racial microaggressions, coined by Psychiatrist Chester Pierce in 1970, became mostly popularized by educators and psychologists. For lack of better words, sociologists had “left the building.” In this book, Dr. Levchak’s has brought back sociology to the microaggressions table, specifically in understanding racial micro- and macroaggressions as both an individual and societal process that has harmful physical, physiological, and mental health consequences for folks of color in the U.S. This is a timely book and one that is apt to generate new ideas in how we ought to be thinking about racial microaggressions.” (Dr. David G. Embrick, Associate Professor of Sociology and Africana Studies, University of Connecticut)
“In this volume, Levchak expands macroaggression theory by discussing the relationship of aggressor to target, responses to the aggression and the spaces where macro and micro aggressions occur. From this perspective, this is a welcomed addition to the scholarship on micro and macro aggressions.” (Silvia Dominguez, Sociology, Northeastern University)
“This thoughtfully enlightening book is an urgent and timely contribution to our understanding of the subtitles of race at the micro-level while offering a clarion call to create a racially just society. Written in an engaging style this richly textured analysis powerfully deepens our understanding of the complexities of micro-and macroaggressions while providing a practical framework to collectively confront biases in order to ameliorate the pernicious impact of racism in America.” (Anthony P. Browne Ph.D., Chair
Department of Africana & Puerto Rican/Latino Studies, Hunter College, The City University of New York)
“These are fitful times – racial tensions and racism experienced by people of color are on the rise. In this incisive book, Levchak, explores the effects of racial aggression in the form of microaggressions and macroaggressions. Brimming with brilliant insights, this book goes beyond just identifying the insidious nature of overt and covert forms of contemporary racism. If you doubt that that there are ways to reduce or even eradicate racism – or if you ever wondered how – read this book.” (Bilal Dabir Sekou, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Political Science, University of Hartford, Department of Social Science)
