The most intersectional book equips students to engage with the most urgent issues of our time
In the first edition of Race in America, Matthew Desmond and Mustafa Emirbayer introduced a groundbreaking intersectional approach framed around social spheres. In the second edition, the authors built on this success with new examples and features in the text to help students see the “big picture” and how they can participate in the fight for racial equality. In this thoroughly revised third edition, new coauthors Karida Brown (Emory University) and Victor Ray (University of Iowa) employ their research and teaching experience to engage students in today’s most relevant issues surrounding race and racism. The unmatched media program for this book has been expanded to include the engaging Norton Illumine Ebook, which features embedded documentary film clips, Dynamic Data Figures, and comprehension questions.

Matthew Desmond is an assistant professor of sociology and social studies at Harvard University. He is the author of Evicted (forthcoming from Crown publishing), On the Fireline: Living and Dying with Wildland Firefighters (2007), and The Racial Order (co-authored with Mustafa Emirbayer, 2015). Mustafa Emirbayer is professor of sociology at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. A past chair of the ASA Theory Section and winner of the Lewis Coser Award for Theoretical Agenda-Setting in Sociology, Emirbayer’s research includes historical studies on the teaching of morality and citizenship in American public schools and theoretical studies on race, social networks, culture, agency, collective emotions, the public sphere and civil society, revolutions and social movements, organizations, and democracy. He is the co-author (with Matthew Desmond) of The Racial Order (2015). Karida Brown is a sociologist, professor, oral historian, and public intellectual whose research centers on the fullness of Black life. She is a proud graduate of Temple University, the University of Pennsylvania, and Brown University.

Her next book, Battle for the Black Mind is forthcoming with Legacy Lit by Hachette Book Group. Dr. Brown resides in Atlanta, GA, with her husband, artist Charly Palmer, and their two pugs. Victor Ray is the F. Wendell Miller Associate Professor in the departments of sociology and criminology and African American studies at the University of Iowa and a Carr Center fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School.
