| dc.description.abstract | Among the domestic issues that shape controversy in American social history is the question of racial inequality. Although the latter has been the concern of many racial/ethnic groups in American society, blacks have been, and still are, the most disadvantaged group. The history of African Americans is a history of social degradation, economic exploitation, and political deprivation. For African Americans, the question of citizenship rights has always been tied to the question of race and racial order. The present thesis deals with the issue of African Americans and persistent racial inequality in the United States. The thesis addresses the issue in question from a socio-historical perspective. What makes of this research work significant is the fact that unlike other studies which focused on the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s as the end point of the road to equality, this thesis, on the contrary, looks at racial inequality facing African Americans in the United States as an unfinished business; as a persistent reality in U.S. society. It focuses on and explores the persistent reality of blackwhite racial inequality. This research work attempts to demonstrate that despite the significant progress made and the fact that the situation of African Americans today is undeniably much improved compared to the past, the journey to true racial equality has not been accomplished yet. Black-white racial inequality remains a persistent feature that still characterizes even twenty-first-century American society. | |
