Section 9: Critical Whiteness Studies

New!

From: Critical Social Work Praxis

Whiteness studies, as June Ying Yee and Gary C. Dumbrill observe in the theory chapter, is an evolving transdisciplinary field that emphasizes not only the socially constructed nature of whiteness, but also its inscription and solidification in white supremacist institutional processes, systems of knowledge, discourses about history, and individual values and emotions.
