Few decades in American history were as full of drama and historical significance as the 1960s and 1970s. In the 1960s, a revolution in race relations occurred, seeing the rise of the Civil Rights Movement, Black Power, the American Indian Movement, and the Latino labor movement. The focus in the 1970s was on carrying out the reforms of the previous decade, with resulting white backlash. Few decades have interested students today as much, and this volume is THE content-rich source in a desirable decade-by-decade organization to help students and general readers understand the crucial race rela.

In the first decades of the twentieth century, virulent racism lingered from Reconstruction, and segregation increased. Hostility met the millions of new immigrants from Eastern and southern Europe, and immigration was restricted. Still, even in an inhospitable climate, blacks and other minority groups came to have key roles in popular culture, from ragtime and jazz to film and the Harlem Renaissance. This volume is THE content-rich source in a desirable decade-by-decade organization to help students and general readers understand the crucial race relations of the start of modern America. Race

This essay speaks to the context of domination and subordination in particular as it pertains to White Supremacy/White Privilege as manifested in the history of slavery and "Jim Crow" in the United States. It is within this historical context one can discern the present status of race relations in the United States that continues to foster race discrimination through the policies of the ethnic majority (white) power structure, e.g.-institutional racism, voter suppression laws, gerrymandering of voter districts and banking policies to name a few areas. The research of books, papers, television interviews and personal experiences provides a testament to present government policies that endeavor to maintain a social construct of dominance and subordination by the white power structure in the United States.
THE TIME SPAN OF A 'GENERATION' HAS BEEN SUGGESTED TO CURRENTLY BE ONLY 5 YEARS LONG. THE YEARS 1968-73 HAVE BEEN MARKED BY RAPID CHANGE IN SEVERAL AREAS: (1) A SHIFT FROM INTEGRATION TO ETHNIC NATIONALISM, (2) THE REEMERGENCE OF A PLURALISTIC ETHNIC CONSCIOUSNESS, & (3) THE DEVELOPMENT OF A NEW DEFINITION OF 'MINORITY' WHICH INCLUDES WOMEN, HOMOSEXUALS, THE AGED, THE YOUNG, STUDENTS, HIPPIES, EXCONVICTS, THE HANDICAPPED, ETC. THE 1970 CENSUS USING 6 RACIAL CATEGORIES FOUND 20% OF THE TOTAL US POPULATION TO BE OF RACIAL MINORITY. THESE CENSUS FIGURES FAILED TO INCLUDE NONRACIAL ETHNICITY, UNDERCOUNTED AREAS WITH HIGH BLACK OR SPANISH-SPEAKING POPULATIONS, & THUS MISREPRESENTED THE ACTUAL FIGURES FOR MINORITY CATEGORIZATION. CONTROVERSY HAS DEVELOPED BETWEEN THE BLACK & WHITE INTERPRETATION OF ECONOMIC, EDUCATIONAL, & INCOME MEASURES OF BLACK PROGRESS AS NOTED IN CENSUS FIGURES; WHITES CLAIM THERE HAS BEEN PROGRESS, BLACKS CLAIM STATISTICS DON'T TELL THE WHOLE STORY. MOST RESEARCH IN RACE & ETHNIC RELATIONS WERE CONCERNED WITH THE MEANING & MEASUREMENT OF GROUP ATTITUDES. LITERATURE DURING THIS 5 YEAR SPAN WAS CONCENTRATED ON THE BLACK STRUGGLE FOR IDENTITY, POWER, & EQUALITY. BLACK ENGLISH HAS EMERGED & SO HAS EVIDENCE OF BLACK-WHITE STRATIFICATION DIFFERENCES. CONTROVERSY REGARDING INEQUALITY & INTELLIGENCE QUOTIENT DIFFERENTIALS REDEVELOPED, & CENTERED AROUND THE VALIDITY OF THE TESTING ITSELF. PROGRAMS TO INTERVENE IN INEQUALITY WERE INSTITUTED: IE, OPERATION HEAD START, PLANNED INTEGRATION OF SCHOOLS & NEIGHBORHOODS, AFFIRMATIVE ACTION, & PREFERENTIAL QUOTAS. RED POWER REAWAKENED AWARENESS OF THE PLIGHT OF THE AMERICAN INDIAN. IMMIGRATION PATTERNS SHIFTED FROM A WESTERN EUROPEAN TO A SOUTHERN & EASTERN EUROPEAN, LATIN AMERICAN, & ASIATIC TREND. ASIAN, HISPANIC, SLAVIC, & JEWISH MINORITY STATUS DEVELOPED INTO CONCEPTS OF PRIDE RATHER THAN ABNEGATION. RACIAL & ETHNIC CONVERGENCE IS PRESENTLY EMERGING THROUGH CONTINUED ASSIMILATION & INTERMARRIAGE. INTERMARRIAGE RATES OF ALL KINDS INCREASED DURING THIS PERIOD WITH RACIAL INTERMARRIAGE OCCURRING LEAST FREQUENTLY, RELIGIOUS INTERMARRIAGE OCCURRING MORE FREQUENTLY, & NATIONALITY INTERMARRIAGE MOST OF ALL. 5 TABLES.

Much has been written lately in both the popular and academic press about the "Browning" of America and the changing nature of race and ethnic relations in the United States. This has been largely the result of the precipitous increase in the Latino population and its profound change on the demographic landscape in the United States. For example, the U.S. Bureau of the Census (2010) has shown the Latino population grew from 35.3 million in 2000 to over 50 million in 2010 (p. 3). The Latino population now represents 16% of the total U.S. population and has surpassed African Americans as the largest racial-ethnic population at the turn of the century. Recent demographic projections calculate that by 2050 the Latino population will increase to an estimated 128 million or 29% of the national total. As Rumbaut (2009) writes, in that year it will exceed the combined total of all other racial minorities (primarily African American and Asian) in the United States (p. 17).
