(A) lucid discussion of race that does not sell out the blackexperience." -- Tommy Lott, author of The Invention ofRaceRevealing Whiteness explores how white privilege operates asan unseen, invisible, and unquestioned norm in society today. In this personal andselfsearching book, Shannon Sullivan interrogates her own whiteness and how beingwhite has affected her. By looking closely at the subtleties of white domination, she issues a call for other white people to own up to their unspoken privilege andconfront environments that condone or perpetuate it. Sullivan's theorizing aboutrace and privilege draws on American pragmatism, psychology, race theory, andfeminist thought. As it articulates a way to live beyond the barriers that whiteprivilege has created, this book offers readers a clear and honest confrontationwith a trenchant and vexing concern.
