Racism is deeply complex, and law professor and comparative race relations expert Tanya Katerí Hernández exposes \"the Latino racial innocence cloak\" that often veils Latino complicity in racism. As Latinos are the second-largest ethnic group in the US, this revelation is critical to dismantling systemic racism. Basing her work on interviews, discrimination case files, and civil rights law, Hernández reveals Latino anti-Black bias in the workplace, the housing market, schools, places of recreation, the criminal justice system, and Latino families. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy focusing on racism perpetrated by communities outside those of White non-Latino people, \u003ci\u003eRacial Innocence\u003c\/i\u003e brings to light the many Afro-Latino and African American victims of anti-Blackness at the hands of other people of color. Through exploring the interwoven fabric of discrimination and examining the cause of these issues, we can begin to move toward a more egalitarian society.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTanya Katerí Hernández\u003c\/b\u003e is an internationally recognized comparative race law expert and a professor of law at Fordham University School of Law, where she teaches anti-discrimination law, comparative employment discrimination, and critical race theory.
