White Women, Race Matters: The Social Construction of Whiteness

Rating:
Summary: Thought Provoking and Necessary
Review: White Women, Race Matters is one of the first books which takes on the monumental task of 'decentralizing' white culture. Through interviews with white women, the author describes, delineates and discusses not only 'whiteness' but how and why we (they) construct it. While this is an academic book, it would be beneficial reading for almost every American.
