Racial reparations against white protectionism america s new Racial Politics
The Journal of Race Ethnicity and Politics, 2021Co-Authors: Rogers M Smith, Desmond KingAbstract:After more than half a century in which American Racial Politics has been structured primarily as a clash between two rival “Racial orders” or “policy alliances,” the longstanding coalitions are transforming into ones centered on significantly new themes. The Racially conservative “color-blind” policy alliance is, under the leadership of President Donald Trump, becoming an alliance promising “white protectionism.” The “race-conscious” policy alliance is, with the mobilizations around the slogan of Black Lives Matter, becoming an alliance focused on “Racial reparations” to end “systemic racism.” These new, even more, polarized Racial policy alliances have counterparts across the globe, and they are likely to shape political life for many years to come.

america s new Racial Politics white protectionism Racial reparations and american identity
China International Strategy Review, 2020Co-Authors: Rogers M Smith, Desmond KingAbstract:The United States has been shaped by clashes between rival “Racial orders” or “Racial policy alliances” since the nation’s very beginning. For the last half century, those contests have chiefly been between proponents of “color-blind” and “race-conscious” public policies. Today, however, the nation’s dominant Racial policy alliances are transforming into ones centered on significantly new themes. The Racially conservative “color-blind” policy alliance is, under the leadership of President Donald Trump, becoming an alliance promising “white protectionism.” The “race conscious” policy alliance is, with the mobilizations around the slogan of Black Lives Matter, becoming an alliance focused on “Racial reparations” to end “systemic racism”. These new, even more polarized Racial policy alliances have counterparts across the globe, and they are likely to shape political life for many years to come.

barack obama and the future of american Racial Politics
Du Bois Review, 2009Co-Authors: Rogers M Smith, Desmond KingAbstract:In 2008, following a campaign in which Racial issues were largely absent, Americans elected their first Black president. This article argues that Obama's election does not signal the dawn of a postRacial era in U.S. Politics. Rather, it reflects the current structure of Racial Politics in the United States—a division between those who favor color-blind policies and seek to keep Racial discussions out of Politics, and those who favor race-conscious measures and whose policies are often political liabilities. The Obama campaign sought to win support from both camps. Only if pervasive material Racial inequalities are reduced can such a strategy succeed in the long run.

comment on the Racial Politics of progressive americanism new deal liberalism and the subordination of black workers in the uaw
Studies in American Political Development, 2005Co-Authors: Rogers M SmithAbstract:My comments on Charles Williams' “Racial Politics of Progressive Americanism” can be brief, because it is an excellent essay and I could not agree more with its central argument. Williams demonstrates that, even though United Automobile Workers (UAW) leaders used the language of Racial equality to support some civil rights advances, Walter Reuther and others also invoked a merely formal equality to deny power to blacks thought to be allied with Communists, and to sustain the support of anti-black workers. They pretended that African Americans were an ethnic group like those of many European-descended Americans, ignoring the enormous differences in the oppression black Americans had long experienced and continued to experience (and still experience). In these ways, an Americanist language, arguably a “liberal” language, of equal rights worked against the Racial equality it purported to honor. On these points, I am fully persuaded.
