Introduction: The Problem of Post-Racialism -- Framing Post-Racialism -- Post-Racialisms -- Materializing Post-Racialism -- The Ambivalent Black Middle Class -- Possible Racial Futures.

Although President Obama's election in 2008 accelerated the debate over whether American society is post-racial, in reality, the idea of a non-racial America has several manifestations, and post-racialism is a variable. Vickerman argues that whilst some manifestations are ideologically-driven, others also coincide with ideas that postulate the non-importance of race in America. Moreover, the ascent of a black president, against the backdrop of a traumatic racial history, has highlighted the black middle class's pivotal role as a symbol of racial progress. But are they post-racial? "The Problem of Post-Racialism" tackles questions such as these through a combination of theory and empirical analysis.
