Building on a legacy of savage hate crimes--such as the killings of Matthew Shepard and James Byrd--McWhorter shows that racism, sexual oppression, and discrimination against the disabled, the feeble, and the poor are all aspects of the same societal distemper, and that when the civil rights of one group are challenged, so are the rights of all.
