The Color Line provides a concise history of the role of race and ethnicity in the US, from the early colonial period to the present, to reveal the public policies and private actions that have enabled racial subordination and the actors who have fought against it. Focusing on Native Americans, African Americans, Asian Americans, and Latino Americans, it explores how racial subordination developed in the region, how it has been resisted and opposed, and how it has been sustained through independence, the abolition of slavery, the civil rights movement, and subsequent reforms. The text also considers the position of European immigrants to the US, interrogates relevant moral issues, and identifies persistent problems of public policy, arguing that all four centuries of racial subordination are relevant to understanding contemporary America and some of its most urgent issues. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of American history, the history of race and ethnicity, and other related courses in the humanities and social sciences.

Joy Stapleton is Ireland's most infamous prisoner. She was incarcerated for two life sentences, after the bodies of her two young sons were found buried in a shallow grave in the Dublin mountains. But she has always maintained her innocence, and argues the only reason she was ever arrested in the first place comes down to mere coincidence. But it's a coincidence that didn't convince detectives. A coincidence that didn't convince a jury. And a coincidence that hasn't impressed the inmates of Mountjoy prison. That is until eight years into her sentence, when new evidence emerges, and everybody - including Joy's long-suffering husband Shay - is forced into a rethink. Take your seat in the courtroom for the retrial of the century... and see just how wide you're willing to allow a coincidence stretch your beliefs...
