Du Bois, and legendary anti-prison activist Angela Davis - showing how these ideas were developed, disseminated and eventually enshrined in American society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContrary to popular conception, it reveals that racist ideas did not arise from ignorance or hatred. Instead, they were devised and honed by some of the most brilliant minds of each era, including anti-slavery and pro-civil rights advocates, who used their gifts and intelligence wittingly or otherwise to rationalize and justify existing racial disparities in everything from wealth to health.\u003cbr\u003eSeen in this piercing new light, racist ideas are shown to be the result, not the cause, of inequalities that stretch back over centuries, brought about ultimately through economic, political, and cultural self-interest.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn forcing us to reconsider our most basic assumptions about racism and also about ourselves, \u003ci\u003eStamped from the Beginning\u003c\/i\u003e leads us to a true understanding on which to build a real foundation for change.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e**INCLUDED IN BARACK OBAMA'S BLACK HISTORY MONTH READING LIST**\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAutorenportrait\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eIbram X.
