After beginning his research on "white skin privilege" in 1965, Allen worked for the next decade to develop more research and writing on this topic. He published ''Class Struggle and the Origin of Racial Slavery: The Invention of the White Race'' (1975). During this time, he also taught as an adjunct history instructor for one semester at Essex County Community College in [[Newark, New Jersey]]. He was described by historian Jeffrey B. Perry as working "throughout his entire adult life ... for the emancipation of the working class and for socialism." |

His work since the 1960s was intended to overturn explanations for [[white supremacy]] that relied on biology or attributed it to benefits gained by the working class. Allen emphasized that the "invention of the white race" was related to class struggle and to ruling class efforts to maintain social control. |
