Testing these concepts by exploring various theoretical approaches and their shortcomings, Lindon Barrett finds that the gulf between \"the street\" (where race is acknowledged as a powerful enigma) and the literary academy (where until recently it has not been) can be understood as a symptom of racial violence. While commonly approaches to race and value are examined historically or sociologically, this intriguing study provides a new critical approach that speaks to theorists of race as well as gender and queer studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.65 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 30, 2009\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47572601962717,"sku":"9780521109956","price":61.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/YbwNy7o9-w9780521109956_1f1690aa-4f32-4bc3-9962-e15648f282b6.webp?v=1773392377","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/blackness-and-value-seeing-double-paperback-2","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
