Hardback. Condition: Very Good. How race shapes expectations about whose losses matterIn democracies, citizens must accept loss; we can?t always be on the winning side. But in the United States, the fundamental civic capacity of being able to lose is not distributed equally.

She connects today?s Black Lives Matter protests to the use of lynching photographs to arouse public outrage over post?Reconstruction era racial terror, and she discusses Emmett Till?s funeral as a catalyst for the civil rights struggles of the 1950s and 1960s. She also traces the political weaponization of white victimhood during the Obama and Trump presidencies. Calling for an expansion of Black and white political imaginations, Hooker argues that both must learn to sit with loss, for different reasons and to different ends.…
