About This Item
New York. 1993. Routledge. 1st Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket . 0415904862. 319 pages. hardcover. Cover photo by Jeffrey Rothstein. Cove design by Alan Hill. keywords: Race Philosophy America African American Religion Faith. FROM THE PUBLISHER - In KEEPING FAITH, Cornel West - author of the bestselling RACE MATTERS - puts forward his ideas about race and about philosophy. West's powerful voice ranges widely across issues of race and culture, the role of the black intellectual, politics and philosophy in America, art and architecture, questions of legal theory, and the future of liberal thought. In a time of decay and discouragement in the black community and among progressive forces at large, KEEPING FAITH offers new strategies to galvanize and propel a new generation of African Americans. Yet, West argues, racial subordination must be understood within the larger crises of our society. Maintaining the uniqueness of black identity and resistance, he provocatively suggests alliances with other intellectual and community-based forms of American radicalism. KEEPING FAITH offers West's distinctive mix of political passions and careful scrutiny. Whether exploring 'the new cultural politics of difference', American pragmatism, or race and social theory, he sustains a difficult balance between a subtly argued critique of the past and present, and a broadly conceived, daring vision of the future. Both troubling and exhilarating, KEEPING FAITH maps not only the concerns of one of the most significant public intellectuals of our time, but issues crucial to Americans of all races. inventory #20885 ISBN: 0415904862.
