A candid discussion of the confines of the term "post-racial"
Obama won not in spite of race, but because he offered a highly palatable, appealing, and carefully mediated version of blackness that was eagerly digested by a majority of the electorate. Logan ultimately concludes that while the selection of an individual African American man as president does not mean that racism is dead in the contemporary United States, we must also think creatively and expansively about what the election does mean for the nation and for the evolving contours of race in the 21st century.
