Publisher's Synopsis
In Thomas's America, political analyst Earl Ofari Hutchinson brings his extensive writings and analysis of SCOTUS justice Clarence Thomas during Thomas's decades on the high court to bear. He assesses the Thomas phenomena and its impact on law, public policy, and race in America.
He examines the controversies that have swirled around Thomas from his ultra-conservative political and ideological rigidity to charges of ethics, and financial improprieties, as well as his borderline legal cozying with rightist billionaire backers. He presents a frightening view of how Thomas would reshape America as a power broker on the SCOTUS.
Thomas's America presents a revealing, and critical but always fascinating look at a high court judge. The judge who has been a major flashpoint of controversy on and off the court for three decades plus.
