Whiteness and white privilege
Beyond the Whiteness of Whiteness: Memoir of a White Mother of Black Sons
Lazarre, Jane. 1997. Duke University Press.
A heartfelt exploration of ethnicity and its implications in America. Lazarre spent twenty-five years living in a Black American family, married to an African-American man, birthing and raising two sons. One of her sons tells her ?I am Black. I have a white mother but I am not 'biracial.' That term is meaningless to me.? Her book is a memoir of coming to terms with this painful truth, of learning to look into the nature of whiteness in a way that passionately informs the connections between herself and her family.
The Cost of Whiteness
Thandeka. In Tikkun, a Bimonthly Jewish Critique of Politics, Culture & Society, Vol. 14, No. 3 (May/June 1999).
Excellent article begins: ?Most white Americans believe they were born white. Yet their own stories of early racial experiences describe persons who were bred white. Which is it--nature or nurture? Neither. The social process that creates whites produces persons who must think of their whiteness as a biological fact.? At www.best.com/~tikkun/9905/9905thandeka.html
