Unraveling Whiteness

Abstract

In unraveling whiteness I attempt to make visible that which remains hidden and unnamed. I deconstruct whiteness from historical, political, and psychoanalytic perspectives. I explore the psychic mechanisms used to maintain socially constructed racial identities and the processes that assist one in shifting toward an antiracist position. Much gratitude to the many people who have helped me emotionally and theoretically. Special thanks to my writing group, my study group, and Carole Maso.
