There is no denying that race is a critical issue in understanding the South. However; this concluding volume of The New Encyclopedia of Southern Culture challenges previous understandings; revealing the regions rich; ever-expanding diversity and providing new explorations of race relations. In 36 thematic and 29 topical essays; contributors examine such subjects as the Tuskegee Syphilis Study; Japanese American incarceration in the South; relations between African Americans and Native Americans; Chinese men adopting Mexican identities; Latino religious practices; and Vietnamese life in the region. Together the essays paint a nuanced portrait of how concepts of race in the South have influenced its history; art; politics; and culture beyond the familiar binary of black and white.
