Book desription: Michigan State U. Press, 2009. Paperback. New Book. Paperback. Stokes (political philosophy and African American politics, Michigan State U.) introduces ten essays that examine the historical and intellectual context of the debate over human rights in the post-9/11/01 world. Contributors address the racial implications of the U.S. global war on terror (e.g., damning "The Patriot Act"), immigration policies, and affirmative action cases. Authors argue that dialog about human rights in the U.S. must include equal rights for all residents. One expert on race relations calls for enlisting the Religious Right to the cause of racial justice (harking back to abolitionists). The anthology includes references and further reading but is not indexed. (©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR)
