Kull provides us with the previously unwritten history of the color-blind liberal ideal that the government take no account of the race of its citizens. For 125 years--from the crusades of the Garrisonian abolitionists to the civil rights legislation of the 1960s--this idea was the constitutional focus of the struggle for racial equality in America.
