Critical Race Theory and the Search for Truth by Rodney Coates (Miami University)
Critical Race and the Search for Truth is unique in that it advances our understanding of how this theory came about, the ways it has been problematized, and the ways in which it can be a tool to move us all forward. The book will provide a clear and concise theoretical approach, with applicable theorems that not only explain our contemporary racial misunderstandings but specific theorems that help us go past initial theorizing to predictive capabilities. These predictive capabilities not only allow us to identify the conditions that gave rise to racial systems but predict the conditions that preserve and alternatively help us dismantle these systems.
