From Publishers Weekly Adams and Sanders trace what they see as the "continuous arc of animosity" between blacks and whites in the United States, contextualizing and shedding light on the racism that that they find persists in the "dark recesses of the nation's heart." Adams, an independent scholar, and Sanders, a professor of English and the History of Ideas at Pitzer College, find obvious malignity in the constitutional debate among the founders

And the spectacular gains of the civil rights era of the 1960s were followed by a discouraging backlash in the 1980s.Racial progress was made only in brief historical bursts when a committed militant minority - abolitionists, radical republicans, civil rights activists - stirred the nation, pressuring it to change. Invariably, however, these advances have been followed by concerted efforts to restore white privilege.. In a devastating narrative that spans more than three centuries, the authors maintain that the drive for African-American equality has never had the support of the majority of Americans.Despite the great racial upheavals of the Civil War and Reconstruction periods, and the federal government s attempts to give blacks the right to vote, hold office, own land, and enjoy full citizenship, Jim Crow and "separate but equal" became the law of the land
