Category removal[edit]

I don't understand why the Category:Racism was removed. Roediger writes about racism, doesn't he?? It's not an accusation that he is a racist (wouldn't that category be Category:Racists?). But he, like many scholars, writes on the topic. And he's a well-recognized scholar of the subject. I'm putting the category back. - Tim1965 04:28, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Needs cites[edit]

His book Wages of Whiteness has been influential and was widely reviewed. It needs to be discussed, with its influences, by cited RS, not somebody's opinion. There should not be a problem finding reviews of this work, which was published in a revised edition about five years later.Parkwells (talk) 21:31, 13 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Works written needs to be updated[edit]

Some of his books aren't mentioned in the list below, such as this one : https://www.versobooks.com/books/2467-class-race-and-marxism — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.212.66.138 (talk) 17:49, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
