Blackness and Modernity

Cecil Foster is associate professor, sociology and anthropology, University of Guelph, and the author of several works of fiction and non-fiction, including Where Race Does Not Matter: The New Spirit of Modernity.

"Foster brings historical depth to his work and shows that the social and political recognition of blackness and multiculturalism is itself a contingent moment in history." George Dei, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto
