• President Obama’s election “suggests that a sea change in<br />
race relations has already occurred”<br />
• However, his “exceptional racial background” and the fact he<br />
was elected in the midst of national crises indicates “race<br />
hasn’t been overcome so much as temporarily superseded.”<br />
• These crises could worsen racial resentment<br />

material, political, and cultural resources; in turn, the same<br />
processes that facilitate racial stratification continually<br />
reconstitute race.”<br />
