A fourth edition is now available.In the third edition of his highly acclaimed book; Bonilla-Silva continues to challenge color-blind thinking. He has now extended this challenge with a new chapter on Obama's election addressing the apparent miracle of a black man elected as the 44th President of the nation despite the fact that racial progress has stagnated since the 1980s and; in some areas; even regressed. In contrast to those who believe the election of President Obama is a watershed moment that signifies the beginning of a post-racial era in America; he suggests this development embodies the racial trends of the last 40 years including two he has addressed in this book: the rise of color-blind racism as the dominant racial ideology and the emergence of an apparently more flexible racial stratification system he characterizes as Latin America-like. Some material from previous editions; including 'Answers to Questions from Concerned Readers;' 'What is to Be Done;' and an Appendix detailing interview questions; is now available on the Rowman Littlefield website through the Teaching/Learning Resources link.
