Hardback. Condizione: Good. Revealing a history that is deep, broad, and infuriating, The Black Tax casts a bold light on the racist practices long hidden in the shadows of America?s tax regimes.   American taxation is unfair, and it is most unfair to the very people who critically need its support. Not only do taxpayers with fewer resources?less wealth, power, and land?pay more than the well-off, but they are forced to fight for their rights within an unjust system that undermines any attempts to improve their position or economic standing. In The Black Tax, Andrew W. Kahrl reveals the shocking history and ruinous consequences of inequitable and predatory tax laws in this country?above all, widespread and devastating racial dispossession.   Throughout the twentieth century, African Americans acquired substantial amounts of property nationwide. But racist practices, obscure processes, and outright theft diminished their holdings and their power. Of these, Kahrl shows, few were more powerful, or more quietly destructive, than property taxes. He examines all the structural features and hidden traps within America?s tax system that have forced Black Americans to pay more for less and stripped them of their land and investments, and he reveals the staggering cost. The story of America?s now enormous concentration of wealth at the top?and the equally enormous absence of wealth among most Black households?has its roots here.   Kahrl exposes the painful history of these practices, from Reconstruction up to the present, and tells, for the first time, the story of Black Americans? experiences as taxpayers and their fight for a more fair and equitable system for raising and spending the public?s money. This is a history that deepens our understanding of the disadvantages and persistent inequalities that African American households continue to face and reveals hidden engines of economic inequality in America. Detailing the hows and whys of America?s profoundly unequal tax system, The Black Tax equips readers with the knowledge needed to combat inequality and injustice today. …

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. Illustrated. New copy. The story of our separate and unequal America in the making, and one man's fight against it During the long, hot summers of the late 1960s and 1970s, one man began a campaign to open some of America's most exclusive beaches to minorities and the urban poor. That man was anti-poverty activist and one?time presidential candidate Ned Coll of Connecticut, a state that permitted public access to a mere seven miles of its 253?mile shoreline. Nearly all of the state's coast was held privately, for the most part by white, wealthy residents. This book is the first to tell the story of the controversial protester who gathered a band of determined African American mothers and children and challenged the racist, exclusionary tactics of homeowners in a state synonymous with liberalism. Coll's legacy of remarkable successes--and failures--illuminates how our nation's fragile coasts have not only become more exclusive in subsequent decades but also have suffered greater environmental destruction and erosion as a result of that private ownership.…
