In Defense of Uncle Tom: Why Blacks Must Police Racial Loyalty

This book shadows the usage of the racial slur 'Uncle Tom' throughout history to understand how social norms associated with the phrase were constructed, disseminated, applied, and enforced. Brando Simeo Starkey provocatively argues that blacks must police racial loyalty and that those successfully prosecuted must be punished with the label Uncle Tom.
