The election of Donald Trump in 2016 turned national attention to the rural United States and its relationship to race. National and local media portrayed rural America as overwhelmingly white and widely afraid of (and opposed to) increasing racial and ethnic diversity in their communities and the nation. This book seeks to analyze and recast how rurality and rural Americans are understood in terms of race, showing the complexity that exists in places that are often flattened into simplified stereotypes. Accessible and centering contemporary issues that make constant headlines, Seeing Race in Rural Space will serve as the go-to book for an introduction to the complexities of race, labor, gender, and immigration in rural America. In addition to the editors, contributors include Rosalind P. Harris, Braden Leap, Margaret A. Hagerman, Courtney Heath, Kelli J. Russell, Emily C. Walton, Veronica A. Limeberry, Adam Driscoll, Nicholas Theis, Christopher Strunk, Julie C. Keller, Kevin S. Alejandrez, Sandra L. Barnes, Kara Woods, Robert Zabawa, Morgan C. Matthew, K. C. Vick, Loka Ashwood, Diana E. Flores, and Lisa R. Pruit.

Kenneth Robinson is associate professor at Clemson University; Mark H. Harvey is adjunct professor at The Evergreen State College; Keiko Tanaka is professor at the University of Kentucky; and Angie Carter is associate professor at Michigan Technological University.

"Facing a glaring issue within the discipline, this book offers a theoretical corrective to the relative lack of race-based scholarship within rural sociology. A much-needed volume for all scholars of race and place."-David G. Embrick, University of Connecticut "A critical and timely book, Seeing Race in Rural Space calls for scholars to center white supremacy in their analysis and offers a compelling and nuanced way to understand rural America."-Michele Statz, coeditor of Global Reflections on Positionality in Rural Access to Justice Research
