Senator Reverend Raphael WarnockFor more than thirty years, Michael Eric Dyson has played a prominent role in the nation as a public intellectual, university professor, cultural critic, social activist and ordained Baptist minister. He has presented a rich and resourceful set of ideas about American history and culture. Now for the first time he brings together the various components of his multihued identity and eclectic pursuits.Entertaining Race is a testament to Dyson’s consistent celebration of the outsized impact of African American culture and politics on this country. Black people were forced to entertain white people in slavery, have been forced to entertain the idea of race from the start, and must find entertaining ways to make race an object of national conversation. Dyson’s career embodies these and other ways of performing Blackness, and in these pages, ranging from 1991 to the present, he entertains race with his pen, voice and body, and occasionally, alongside luminaries like Cornel West, David Blight, Ibram X. Kendi, Master P, MC Lyte, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Alicia Garza, John McWhorter, and Jordan Peterson.Most of this work will be new to readers, a fresh light for many of his long-time fans and an inspiring introduction for newcomers. Entertaining Race offers a compelling vision from the mind and heart of one of America’s most important and enduring voices. Review “Offers razor-sharp insights into American history, politics, and art. This is a feast of insights.” Publishers Weekly (Starred) A thoughtful, elegantly argued contribution to the literature of Black lives in America.” Kirkus (Starred) “Dysons essays and writings address a rich assortment of thought-provoking topics… an expansive and accessible overview of the inquiries of an important social and cultural thinker.” Booklist“In this extensive and thorough journey, Dyson continues to amaze and amuse on topics surrounding African American roles in entertainment. A thought-provoking vision from one of our country’s national treasures.” Detroit Free Press “Michael Eric Dyson has been a lodestar for my generation: a brilliant intellectual whose accessible scholarship bridges the university and popular culture... Entertaining Race is a true gift to our culture.” Candace Parker, WNBA champion, 2x WNBA MVP For over a quarter century, Michael Eric Dyson has wrestled with critical race theory as a professor, analyzed racial injustice as a social critic, preached a progressive vision of Christianity as a preacher, and engaged in principled resistance as a social activist. Entertaining Race is a compelling and timely meditation on some of the most important issues
