- W2105748740 abstract "Two recent books illustrate a preoccupation with interracial coalition. Lani Guinier and Gerald Torres's book, The Miner's Canary: Enlisting Race, Resisting Power, Transforming Democracy, forcefully argues that minorities should unite, beginning with local issues, in pursuit of social justice. Eric Yamamoto's book, Interracial Justice: Conflict and Reconciliation in Post-Civil Rights America, outlines a program for minorities to bury their grievances and work together toward essentially the same ends. The two books differ greatly in their organization, style, and scope. For example, one is elegant, even overwrought, while the other is lucid and terse. But they share the faith that America's hope lies with a heady coalition of the dispossessed. They argue that outsider scholars and communities, because of the legacy of oppression, enjoy a deeper, sharper sense of social justice than the more complacent majority. Accordingly, if blacks, Latinos, Asians, Native Americans, and down-and-out whites join forces, not only they but also the country as a whole will benefit. Part I of this Review briefly describes and compares the Guinier-Torres and Yamamoto books, noting their strengths and weaknesses. Part II explores the logic of coalition making. Part III shows that when race is an element, coalition making becomes more, not less, problematic. Part IV examines the historical record of interminority coalitions. The Conclusion urges reformers to replace the procedural objective of coalition with the substantive goal of social justice and to work to realize that goal both individually and collectively. The hope for a great union of dispossessed people standing shoulder to shoulder is, ultimately, an evasion, motivated by the unspoken desire to let someone else do the hard work. The differential racialization hypothesis posits that racial harms will vary from group to group and over time. It logically follows therefore, that redress for those harms will take culturally specific forms so that the collective dimension of struggle will very often take second place to the individual one." @default.
