About the book
Jonathan M. Metzl offers a provocative sociological analysis of how racially motivated policies in the United States disproportionately harm low-income white Americans. The book examines four case studies — mental health, firearms, opioid drugs, and education — revealing the contradictions between political rhetoric and real outcomes.
Metzl demonstrates how identity politics rooted in racial resentment can lead entire communities to adopt policies harmful to themselves, offering a critical perspective on polarization, inequality, and the human costs of social divisions.
