Popis: America in Black and White by Stephen and Abigail Thernstrom has become one of the bibles of the movement to abolish affirmative action. The book, however, seriously misinterprets and misuses evidence to make its case. This critical analysis focuses on the Thernstroms' errors in their discussion of housing, education, higher education, politics, crime, and employment.
