Written by an expert on racial violence, this book regards the debate over reparations since the 1700s, examining the arguments on both sides of the debate. It takes us inside litigation and legislatures, examining failed and successful lawsuits, and reparations actions by legislatures, newspapers, schools, and businesses.
Today, the debate over reparations--whether African-Americans should be compensated for decades of racial subjugation--stands as the most racially divisive issue in American politics. In this short, definitive work, Alfred L. Brophy, an expert on racial violence, regards the debate over reparations from the 1700s to the present, examining the arguments on both sides of the current debate. Taking us inside litigation and legislatures past and present, examining failed and successful lawsuits, and reparations actions by legislatures, newspapers, schools, and businesses, including apologies and truth commissions, this book offers a valuable historical and legal perspective for reparations advocates and critics alike.
