Topics both contemporary and historical race, otherness, trauma, slavery, ethics, whiteness and neoliberalism (amongst others) are addressed in ways both invigorating and original, and in manner which changes how we think the role and pertinence of the psychological in the contemporary world."

"David Goodman, Eric Severson and Heather Macdonald have put together a comprehensive resource that addresses the manifold challenges we face when confronting othernessin all of its philosophical, psychological, and theological complexities. Race, Rage and Resistance does so by bringing into conversation a diverse group of scholars who underscore the manifest and latent ways that theories and practices of oppression keep us from forming and sustaining genuine community. Collectively, this volume of essays reinvigorates what the wisdom of the past, whether from Fanon, Freud, Lacan or Levinas, has to say about the urgent challenges of alterity we face today."

"These thinkers are utterly determined to jar us out of any tired tropes about race, human relating, and history. The reader cannot help but be shaken and enlivened by the depth and reach of these ideas. Every philosopher, historian, psychoanalyst, academic, and humanitarian would do well to take on the challenge of engaging this work because these authors are fearless. They will march you into surprisingly dark and light-filled spaces."
