EPILOGUE
- Thanks to one of the Oxford University Press referees for suggesting this more fitting con-
clusion to the book.
- Left-wing liberals will, of course, be that political constituency most sympathetic to a
“black radical liberalism.” But I am claiming that even centrist and right-wing liberals, if
they are genuinely morally committed to racial justice, and willing to acknowledge how
white supremacy has shaped modernity and the historically dominant forms of liberalism,
should be open to a corrective black liberalism far more “radical” than the current main-
stream variety.
- See, for example, Critical Philosophy of Race 1, no. 1 (2013): Special Issue: Critical
Philosophy of Race beyond the Black/ White Binary.
- Kwame Ture (Stokely Carmichael) and Charles V. Hamilton, Black Power: The Politics of
Liberation, with new afterwords by the authors (New York: Vintage, 1992; orig. ed. 1967).
- Cedric J. Robinson, Black Marxism: The Making of the Black Radical Tradition, with a
new preface by the author (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 2000; orig.

- See Lucius Outlaw’s classic 1990 essay “Toward a Critical Theory of ‘Race,’ ” rpt. in Bernard
Boxill, ed., Race and Racism (New York: Oxford University Press, 2001). Outlaw’s piece
may be the very first article in philosophy explicitly to call for a “critical” theorization of
society that is extended to race.
