Conclusion

Liberal political theory has far-reaching implications for issues of racial justice in the United States. It supports demands for reparations, appropriate memorialization, support for black institutions, affirmative action, dramatic improvement of the conditions in black neighborhoods, reform of the criminal justice system, and the enhancement of educational opportunities for African Americans. The underlying theme running through all of these conclusions is that racial justice requires not necessarily integration but rather a commitment to the liberty and equality of all. These conclusions converge with the demands of radical movements and schools of thought, such as critical race theory and the Movement for Black Lives.
