Book summary


Drawing on polling data, policy studies, and popular journalism, Hochschild probes the ideologies of blacks and whites, middle-class and poor, to determine how people feel about racism, class, and the American dream.


Media reviews


"Hochschield shows that shared disaffection and hardening black and white views of each other threaten to rend the nation's social fabric. Her work demands thoughtful reading and earnest discussion."
