Perhaps, D'Souza suggests, like the Hebrews who were forced to wander in the desert for 40 years, that generation may have to pass away before their descendants can enter the promised land of freedom and equality.

In the meantime, however, many race activists are preaching despair and poisoning the minds of a younger generation which in fact displays far less racial consciousness and bigotry than any other in American history.

The End of Racism summons profound historical, moral, and practical arguments against the civil rights orthodoxy which holds that “race matters” and that therefore we have no choice but to institutionalize race as the basis for identity and public policy.

With Illiberal Education, D'Souza significantly expanded the range of acceptable discourse about race. This book will expand those limits even further, offering a way out of the deadlocked debate about race and setting forth the principles that should guide us in creating a multiracial society.
