And so this leading to my question, you know, that this book came out in 2008.
You talked somewhat about what kind of started motivating and getting your thinking along this lines.
It's in its third edition, which is pretty rare for an academic book.
Um, so it's had quite a bit of, uh, legs, if you will, and, and necessitated multiple releases.
And so you tell us a bit about what prompted you to, uh, update it and revive, cause this is not just a, a, you know, a slap on a new, uh, uh, prologue and, and maybe tweak, uh, an introduction or, or, or a conclusion.
You, you update several parts of this book.
We talk about what prompted that.
No, I'm glad you did.
As I shared with you before we started recording, I've always felt over the years that I've been podcasting just of how applicable and prescient your book has been ever since I came across it.
I think about that timeline of 2008 when it first comes out to now.

And oh, my gosh, I can just imagine maybe that maybe within the first few years when it came out with the Obama era and and, you know, all of the the thoughts and emotion of are we in this post-racial era?
Right.
That was early on in the Obama era.
Right.
And then you see the Tea Party movement.
Right.
And so the honeymoon was over pretty quick.
In fact, I remember the day after Obama was elected.
And I'm kind of just, you know, on a cloud too, just thinking, wow, this is incredible.
