Should We Narrow the Scope of “Racism” to Accommodate White Sensitivities?
Critical Philosophy of Race 7 (2):223-246 (2019)
Abstract
This article critically examines the proposal that the word "racism" should be restricted to the most egregious of racial ills. It argues that the costs of restricting the scope of the term in this way are too great and that the proposal gives too much weight to white sensitivities.Author's Profile
