Title: When Affirmative Action Was White
First published: 2005
Description: Many mid 20th century American government programs created to help citizens survive and improve ended up being heavily biased against African-Americans.  Katznelson documents this white affirmative action, and argues that its existence should be an important part of the argument in support of late 20th century affirmative action programs.
