Anna Stubblefield suggests furthermore that white Americans should consider the same issues. She argues, finally, that for both black and white Americans, thinking of races as families is crucial in helping to combat anti-black oppression.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eStubblefield is concerned that the philosophical debate―argued notably between Kwame Anthony Appiah and Lucius Outlaw―over whether or not we should strongly identify in terms of race, and whether or not we should take race into account when we decide how to treat each other, has stalled. Drawing on black feminist scholarship about the moral importance of thinking and acting in terms of community and extended family, the author finds that strong racial identification, if based on appropriate ideals, is morally sound and even necessary to end white supremacy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Stubblefield, Anna","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43154949996720,"sku":"9780801489761","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0528\/6821\/9056\/files\/512FMFxjspL._SY342_7ee04e14-de0d-4469-a48f-0509de7354e2.jpg?v=1706823547"},{"product_id":"the-nicomachean-ethics","title":"The Nicomachean Ethics","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNicomachean Ethics focuses on the importance of habitually behaving virtuously and developing a virtuous character.
