Strange Fruit - Kenan Malik
Why both sides are wrong in the race debate
Strange Fruit takes to task the controversial words of Nobel Laureate James Watson in 2007 and examines the race debate in greater, braver detail. The book argues that Race is not a rational, scientific category, and that anti-racism has become an irrational, anti-scientific philosophy. It outlines the challenge faced in confronting racial thinking while defending scientific rationality and promoting enlightenment universality.
