STOP THINKING RACE IS ANCIENT HISTORY. START LEARNING WHY IT NEVER STAYED THERE.
Race wasn't discovered-it was constructed, revised, and reused whenever power needed justification. From empires classifying subjects to pseudoscience sorting humanity, this is the story of how a fragile idea hardened into systems that shaped law, labor, and identity across centuries.
THIS ISN'T A MORAL LECTURE. IT'S A HISTORY OF A TOOL.
Inside, discover how race shifted meanings to serve slavery, colonialism, nationalism, and modern politics-how categories changed while consequences stayed real. You'll see how biology was bent, culture simplified, and difference weaponized again and again.
THE IDEA SURVIVED BECAUSE IT WAS USEFUL.
This book reveals why race refused to fade with progress, how it adapted to new eras, and why understanding its history matters now more than ever. Not because the past is gone-but because this concept keeps returning, wearing new clothes, demanding to be understood.
