Black Rights/White Wrongs
The Critique of Racial Liberalism
Book • 2017
In 'Black Rights/White Wrongs', Charles W. Mills critiques racial liberalism by arguing that liberalism's failure to realize its promise of equality is due to its entanglement with white supremacy.
He suggests that liberalism can be salvaged as a framework for justice if it incorporates the perspectives of marginalized groups.
The book also critiques influential philosophers like John Rawls for their silence on race and advocates for a 'black radical liberalism' that integrates critical race theory into liberal traditions.
