Racecraft by Karen E. Fields
The Soul of Inequality in American Life
The book explores the concept of "racecraft," a term coined to describe the process by which racism is transformed into a perceived natural phenomenon, akin to witchcraft. It delves into the ways in which social, political, and economic forces shape and perpetuate racial ideologies, arguing that race is not a biological reality but a social construct maintained through systemic practices and beliefs. The authors draw on historical and contemporary examples to illustrate how racecraft operates in society, challenging readers to rethink the foundations of racial inequality and the myths that sustain it.
