[QUOTE="Greg K, post: 8097529, member: 5038"] I'll have to back and check. The documented known use by Pratt that I mentioned was important because it was regarding the dominant group affecting the opportunity of another ethnic group. With regards to Dubois's first published book was in 1896 and one critical book that I recall was first published in 1940. However, we did not examine his work. The professor, of whom I spoke, taught both African-American studies and Anthropology. The first class session, he spoke on racism. He discussed how race was a term that should be eliminated from our vocabulary as it is a human construct with no basis in biology and goes back to Blumenbach and others of his time. he stressed the use of ethnicity instead of race. He talked briefly about DuBois and the origin of the academic usage of the term racism, its difference from prejudice and bigotry, and introduced the academic term color structuralism (involving two groups in which neither is dominant in society). He then discussed that any ethnic group can be racist, but they have to be the dominant group with political power and provided examples from his own travels He then challenged us to research the origin of the term racism (and anything else that stated during any class rather than taking his word). It was while taking his challenge that I encountered the usage by Pratt and found sources discussing both Dubois' and the academic usage and other sources discussing changes in the term's usage after World War II.
