This book studies the 'race-based' legal cases and literature surrounding three seemingly different practices in the academy: affirmative action in college administrations, hate speech codes, and tenure of faculty of colour.
Highlighting potential assumptions and contradictions in these cases, Baez sheds doubt on the role of the courts and academic institutions in progressive race-projects and suggests that framing these issues within legal terms forecloses a critical response to them.
