The chapters discuss affirmative action and diversity, current protests from across the political spectrum, police killings, the relevance of race to the effects of disasters and climate change, white privilege as a cause for political impasse, racial identity (including mixed race identities), race and gender, and media representations of race. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile treating issues of race as moral subjects with suggested moral foundations, Zack does not lead the student to specific conclusions. Rather, through thought, discussion, and writing questions, students learn to construct their own chains of reasonings based on explicit moral foundations. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book features: \u003cbr\u003e- Up-to-date social and biological scientific findings\u003cbr\u003e- Hot-button current issues\u003cbr\u003e- discussion questions and writing prompts\u003cbr\u003e- further reading lists and video resources\u003cbr\u003e- a comprehensive glossary\u003cbr\u003e- international examples to supplement US-based discussion\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNaomi Zack \u003c\/b\u003eis professor of philosophy at Lehman College, CUNY.
