Anderson's book traces episodes of white rage dating from the Civil War era to the present day. Is the modern manifestation of white rage different from the 1860's version, and, if so, how?

Following Anderson's theory, describe an instance of white rage that is not covered in the book. Remember that "white rage" is not the same thing as racism or white supremacy, but a reaction to the (perceived) advancement of African Americans.

Anderson argues that white rage has "undermined democracy" and "warped the Constitution." Is white rage—and systemic racism, more broadly—incompatible with democratic principles? Why or why not?
